To discover the history behind our city’s sculptures and statues, art aficionados reach for Public Art in Vancouver: Angels Among Lions by John Steil and Aileen Stalker (TouchWood Editions, $19.95), at local bookstores. The guide includes photos and descriptions of more than 500 installations and the art is divided by neighbourhood, so you can plan an easy-on-the-wallet walking tour. Talk about recession-friendly. – Kristina Urquhart
