The City of Vancouver Book Award is a Canadian literary award, that has been presented annually by the city of Vancouver, British Columbia to one or more works of literature judged as the year's best fiction, non-fiction, poetry or drama work about the city. As with the City of Toronto Book Award, the award may go to one or more books. The award has a monetary value of $3,000. The prize is funded by interest earned from the city’s publishing reserve, which was established in 1977 as a permanent legacy for writers and publishers. The fund received royalties generated from ''Vancouver’s First Century: a photo history of Vancouver'', edited by city staff. The third edition of the book, renamed ''Vancouver: A City Album'', for many years generated royalty payments for the fund. ==Winners== *1989 - Paul Yee, ''Saltwater City'' *1990 - Sky Lee, ''Disappearing Moon Café'' *1991 - Michael Kluckner, ''Vanishing Vancouver'' *1992 - Gerald Straley, ''Trees of Vancouver'' *1993 - Bruce Macdonald, ''Vancouver: A Visual History'' *1994 - Denise Chong, ''The Concubine's Children'' *1995 - Elspeth Cameron, ''Earle Birney: A Life'' *1996 - Wayson Choy, ''The Jade Peony'' *1997 - Rhodri Windsor Liscombe, ''The New Spirit: Modern Architecture in Vancouver, 1938-1963'' *1998 - Chuck Davis, ''The Greater Vancouver Book: An Urban Encyclopaedia'' *1999 - Bud Osborn, ''Keys to Kingdoms'' *2000 - Lilia D'Acres and Donald Luxton, ''Lions Gate'' *2001 - Madeleine Thien, ''Simple Recipes'' *2002 - Keith Carlson, ed., ''A Sto:lo-Coast Salish Historical Atlas'' *2003 - ''multiple winners'' ::Lincoln Clarkes, Ken Dietrich-Campbell, Patricia Canning and Elaine Allan, ''Heroines'' ::Reid Shier, ed., ''Stan Douglas: Every Building on 100 Block West Hastings'' *2004 - Daniel Francis, ''L.D.: Mayor Louis Taylor and the Rise of Vancouver'' *2005 - Lance Berelowitz, ''Dream City: Vancouver and the Global Imagination'' *2006 - ''multiple winners'' ::Jean Barman, ''Stanley Park’s Secret: The Forgotten Families of Whoi Whoi, Kanaka Ranch and Brockton Point'' ::James P.
