About the Author
Paul Karr is an award-winning writer and editor based in the U.S. and Canada. To update this edition of Irreverent Vancouver, he quaffed microbrews from mainland to island and back, test-drove fig leafs at Wreck Beach, and learned to spell “colour” and “neighbourhood” the Canadian way. He loves British Columbia, and he’ll definitely be back soon.
