It took eight years of planning and hard work to transform a former railroad yard into a colourful showplace full of pavilions and shows for the six-month event, but those lucky enough to have been there would agree that it was worth it. Expo '86, truly a world's fair, \u003cbr\u003eincluded pavilions from 9 provinces and territories, 54 nations and international groups, and 3 American states. Many of Canada's largest industries joined in, as well, to celebrate the fair's theme, \"A World\u003cbr\u003ein Movement, A World in Touch.\" Vintage photographs recapture the fun and excitement of the largest event held to that time in British Columbia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bill Cotter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 073856561X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780738565613\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/16\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.37h x 6.73w x 0.35d","brand":"Bill Cotter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43996802875647,"sku":"9780738565613","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6051e18b-7991-426f-a37b-8ef3c7ad309b.jpg?v=1683343779","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/vancouvers-expo-86-bill-cotter-9780738565613","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
