Description
Part showman, part salesman, was Joe Perkins a visionary or an opportunist? The people of Perth, Ontario could never decide.
Regardless of which opinion one held, it was obvious that in a town where time passes slowly, Joe Perkins was moving at a speed faster than those around him.
This is the fascinating story of one man's attempt to drag his hometown into the 20th century.
