Summary |
In telling the history of British Columbia, George Woodcock presents the varied personalities who shaped the province: Canadian fur traders and British naval captains; genteel citizens of 19th century Victoria and brawling miners in Barkerville; high-minded missionaries and hard-living railroad builders; land speculators, farmers, politicians, journalists, industrialists, and of course the original inhabitants, the First Nations.
