About This Item
Victoria, 1901. 406pp. Photos and charts. Decorated red cloth binding. Spine somewhat sunned. Corners slightly bumped. Very good. Tipped in is a letter from librarian of British Columbia's Legislative Library to Professor George Davidson of the University of California. A wealth of information on all manner of economic and cultural resources, richly illustrated with photographs of turn-of-the-century British Columbia. Though the titlepage is dated 1897 and mentions a section on the Yukon, this edition was actually produced around 1901, and the concluding section on the Yukon has been omitted. This is one of five editions of this work published between 1897 and 1903 and is the second longest in pagination. KURUTZ, KLONDIKE 211d
