The City’s Golden Book of Remembrance pays tribute to those who perished in the Second World War. These books contain the names of service people from Toronto who paid the ultimate sacrifice. The book was officially dedicated by the City on December 28, 1947 and contains the names of more than 3,400 servicemen and servicewomen from Toronto who gave their lives between 1939 and 1945. The book is normally housed at the City of Toronto Archives.
