This accurate, colourful history chronicles how people have lived, worked, struggled and enjoyed themselves while settling Canada's most intriguing province: from the struggles of native populations to the narratives of the early European explorers; from the development of resource-based insutries to the environmental battles; from the adventurous men of the fur trade to the native women working in the canneries; from the powerful coal and railway barons to striking union members; from De Cosmos to Bennett to Harcourt, this is a fascinating and entertaining introduction to the characters and events of British Columbia's history.
