Skiers in the mountains while a ferry cruises below; peach blossom time in the Okagan valley; totem poles gracing old villages in the Queen Charlotte islands; Victoria's Empress Hotel and the cosy harbour it overlooks - Canada's Pacific province has been blessed with a long, peaceful history and a scenic heritage as yet unspoiled.B.C. was settled by Indians long before the arrival of Europeans, and their artistic traditions still flourish. White settlement was pushed forward by successive gold rushes in the nineteenth century, and old Barkerville has been restored to tell the tale. Today, B.C.'s forests and mineral resources make it one of Canada's richest provinces.Mystery sasquatches in the mountains, Vancouver's Chinatown, and the Greenpeace Foundation are all parts of B.C.'s mosaic. Its variety and complexity make the province quite different from other parts of Canada. This fascinating book captures B.C.'s colourful atmosphere and reflects the proud traditions of those who live there.
