Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Hand-Book to British Columbia and Vancouver Island The rivalry and antagonism between the two colonies had continued increasing to such an extent (owing in part to their imposition by the mainland colony of a differential customs duty and of a gold export tax), that a movement was made for their union under one government. The legislature of the Island had passed a resolution in its favour, and in August 1866, the union was accomplished by an Act of the Imperial Parliament; but the capital of the colony was still established at New Westminster, on the mainland. Mr. Frederick Seymour was appointed to be the first Governor. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortlisted for the 2014 City of Victoria Butler Book Prize Shortlisted for a 2014 BC Book Prize Finalist for the Lieutenant-Governor's Medal for Historical Writing Just how, and why, did Vancouver Island get onto the map? How was knowledge of our immediate geography acquired and recorded? With 130 maps, dating between 1593 and 1915, this cartographic history tells the story of how Vancouver Island and the surrounding area came to be mapped. The book shows local cartographic milestones, marking progress in our knowledge through the island’s rich—although comparatively short—recorded history. However, the maps, by themselves and without context, cannot tell the whole story. The accompanying text reveals the motives, constraints, agendas, and intrigues that underpin their making. The narrative, roughly chronological, begins before the arrival of Europeans and concludes at the outset of the First World War and includes an introduction on the history and significance of map-making, as well as an afterword summarizing subsequent cartographic developments. Also included are an index, endnotes, a list of cartographic sources, and a glossary.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Facts and Figures Relating to Vancouver Island and British Columbia: Showing What to Expect and How to Get There; With Illustrative Maps It is my intention to use freely the published evidence of any modern witness, where such evidence is prefer able to my own; so that this may, to some extent, be regarded rather as a compilation of facts than as an original treatise, in which the writer can have no other object than to supply correct information. An influx of strangers adds considerably to the work of the office under my direction; and, in addition to this consider ation, I should feel much regret if, by any too highly coloured or over-sanguine statements of mine, people were induced to undertake an unprofitable voyage.

Download or read book Vancouver Island and British Columbia written by Matthew Macfie and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vancouver Island and British Columbia: Their History, Resources, and Prospects This volume is the first that has been published in this country containing full and classified information on the various topics relating to the colonies of Vancouver Island and British Columbia. It is hoped that, at the same time, comprehensiveness has not been lost sight of in the grouping of details. A few other works have already appeared; some of which give valuable statistics bearing upon the physical and political geography, climatology, flora, fauna, and aborigines of these important dependencies. Some little has also been written on their principal resources; but all the books that have hitherto issued from the English press on the subject put together fail, in the author's estimation, to exhibit the commercial, timber-exporting, mining, and agricultural capabilities of the colonies with the minuteness and prominence they merit. Had these points been discussed, however, in the most satisfactory manner, it is now several years since any extended account of Vancouver Island and British Columbia has been submitted to the British public, and the progress of these thriving settlements in that brief and eventful interval necessarily renders previous volumes, in many respects, out of date.
