Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Barkerville Lives On! First published in 1969, Barkerville Days is the nearest thing we have to a definitive history of one of the world's most colourful gold rushes. It has taken more than a hundred years for the first truly extensive and carefully researched story of Barkerville and its Cariboo goldfields to be placed between covers of a comprehensive volume.
