Revised and completely updated, this new edition of the much-loved A Traveller's Guide to Historic British Columbia takes travellers, armchair and actual, on a road trip through the province's history. This classic handbook follows main roads and back roads to historic sites, heritage experiences and the narratives of the past. The stories of First Nations, ethnic minorities, and incoming settlers weave a rich tapestry that underlies the region's present. Included in this new edition are First Nations experiences, displays and museums that limn indigenous heritage; details of changing museums and revamped and newly designated heritage sites; and notes of sites and buildings that sadly have slipped away. The author blends quirky tales with evidence of landscape change, tragic timelines with soaring successes, accounts of relatively recent big-city historic buildings with the signs and tales of thousands of years ago. Not a history of British Columbia, but an introduction to the ever-changing ways of experiencing that history in all its variations, this book will live in glove compartments, on screens, and on bookshelves as curious travellers happily discover the country of the past.
