Book First Edition
Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. xiv, 265 p., [8] p. of plates : ill., maps . Pacific maritime studies series ; 9 An expanded and updated edition of Gough's previous "Distant Dominion". Blurb: "The Northwest Coast was irrevocably changed the day that Captain James Cook sailed into Nootka Sound in 1778. Cook's discovery of the sea otter population along the coast initiated the maritime fur trade, which, in turn, led to feverish competition among several nations, especially Britain, Russia, and the United States, as well as the celebrated rivalry between Spain and Britain for control of Nootka. By 1812, a toe-hold of British empire was established and the aboriginal way of life was shattered. The Northwest Coast documents Britain's rise to pre-eminence in this far-flung corner of the empire. It shows how the relentless activities of its commercial interests, the adroit use of its naval power, and the steely resolve of its diplomats secured British claims to dominion and rights to trade along the Northwest Coast. Written by a leading maritime scholar and based on fresh research into known manuscripts and printed works on Pacific trade and exploration, this book incorporates new interpretations on exploration and commercial activity in this area. It documents the interaction, often violent, between British sailors and aboriginal people; depicts many of the rivalries among British mariners; and examines various claims to the discovery of the Northwest Passage.".

Book
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. Hard cover, dust jacket. Finr/ fine. Illustrated. 280 pages. The Canadian northwest coast, home to aboriginal peoples for thousands of years, became a player in British imperialism when Captain James Cook arrived at Nootka Sound in 1778. Cook's discovery of the sea-otter population along the coast initiated the maritime fur trade, which, in turn, led to feverish competition involving several nations (especially Britain, Russia, and the United States) as well as to the celebrated rivalry of Spain and Britain for Nootka. Britain's determination to push its commercial interests, coupled with its timely and adroit use of naval power, secured British claims to dominion and rights to trade along the northwest coast. By 1812, a toe-hold of the British empire was established and the aboriginal way of life was irrevocably shattered. Based on fresh researches into known manuscripts and printed works on Pacific trade and exploration, "The Northwest Coast" adds to existing knowledge of European exploration and discovery of the area. It documents the interaction, often violent, between British sailors and aboriginal people; it depicts many of the rivalries between mariners; it examines various claims to the discovery of the Northwest Passage; and its explains the changing motives of the British government when dealing with Spain's attempt to keep Nootka as the northern bastion of the Spanish empire. Barry Gough also outlines the entrepreneurial activities of Peter Pond and provides information on the westward expansion of the major fur-trading companies. The extensive use of quotations from, and references to, the journals and correspondence of, among others, Cook, Vancouver, and Meares provides a keen insight into the motives and attitudes of the early British explorers and, in addition, gives access to ethno-historical information. "Barry M. Gough is a professor in the Department of History at Wilfrid Laurier University, Ontario.". Size: 8vo - over 7 in- 9 in Tall. Book.
