The narrative spans the early maritime explorations of the Pacific coast, the establishment of the mainland and island colonies, and the transformative impact of the gold rushes that drew thousands to the Fraser River and the Cariboo.The book details the complex socio-political challenges faced by early settlers and administrators, including the resolution of boundary disputes and the eventual decision to join the Dominion of Canada in 1871. Through a detailed analysis of economic development and institutional growth, Howay illustrates how the unique geography and resources of the Pacific Northwest shaped the identity of British Columbia.

Alas, these volumes are not whole and complete. As often happens with multiple volume works that are reprinted, signatures, as well as illustrations, are duplicated or missing. In Vol. 1, between pp. 83 and 97, there are 10 illustrations, which are not listed in the List of Illustrations, and which actually appear between the same pages in Vol. 2. Missing from Vol. 1 in these pages are two illustrations: p.84, A Man and Woman of Nootka Sound, and p.94, Mount St. Elias and the New Eddystone. In Vol. 2, the signature containing pp. 545-560 is missing; p. 544 has an image of the Legislative Assembly 1909, which is not listed in the List of Illustrations; and pp. 673-690 are duplicated. Otherwise, all illustrations are present and in fine condition. There is no date of publication listed in Vol. 1; but Vol. 2 has the date 1914 printed on the title page. NOTE: Price reflects these defects and extra postage will be required for shipping these heavy volumes.…
