J.R. Booth - The Life and Times of an Ottawa Lumberking, by John Ross Trinnell

John Rudolphus Booth was a Canadian lumber king and railroad baron. He controlled logging rights for large tracts of forest land in central Ontario, and built the Canada Atlantic Railway to extract his logs and to export lumber and grain to the United States and Europe. In 1892, his lumber mill was the largest operation of its kind in the world.
