Published by John Murray, London, 1862
Seller: Attic Books (ABAC, ILAB), London, ON, Canada
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: Good. xi, 468, 32 p. 23 cm. B&w drawings. Fold-out map towards rear. Brown cloth with black and gold impessing. Corners bumped. Respined with original spine overlaid. New endpapers. Publisher's presentation inscription on a front page. Occasional thumbing. Rear map is jutting on a bit and is slightly foxed and torn. "So little is yet known about British Columbia and Vancouver Island that the Author hopes his experience of four years spent in the survey and exploration of both these Colonies, may be found of interest." The author tells of his voyage to the west coast, describes the colonies and their inhabitants, and summarizes the provinces' mineral wealth. Appendix and index.
