Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esteemed historian Jean Barman brings new insights on the seemingly disparate events that converged to lay the foundation of the present-day province. By examining newly accessible private correspondence exchanged with the Colonial Office in London, Barman pieces together the chain of events that caused the distant colony of British Columbia to join the Canadian Confederation as opposed to the very real possibility of becoming one or more American states. Following the division of the Pacific Northwest between Britain and the United States in 1846, it took British Columbia just a quarter of a century to be transformed from a largely Indigenous territory in 1871, into a province of the recently formed Canada Confederation. In this detailed exploration of colonial politics, including fur trader and politician James Douglas’s governance and the critical role played by the many unions between white settlers and and Indigenous women, Barman expertly weaves together seemingly disparate events that converged to lay the foundations of today’s Canadian province.

Download or read book The Resettlement of British Columbia written by Cole Harris and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nine essays reflect on the strategies of colonialism in British Columbia during the first 150 years after the arrival of European settlers. Peering through the dual lenses of post-colonial theory and empirical data, the author considers Native disease and depopulation; the means by which fur traders consolidated their position in Native territories; the introduction of British property law, and the methods of surveillance and disciplinary power that accompanied it; the progressive destruction of distance and the repossession of land; and the cultural assumptions of missionaries and settlers.
