This book was released on 2016 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[Gough's] research...has been thorough, his presentation is scholarly, and his case fully sustained."--The Times Literary Supplement The influence of the Royal Navy on the development of British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest was both effective and extensive. Yet all too frequently, its impact has been ignored by historians, who instead focus on the influence of explorers, fur traders, settlers, and railway builders. In this thoroughly revised and expanded edition of his classic 1972 work, naval historian Barry Gough examines the contest for the Columbia country during the War of 1812, the 1844 British response to President Polk's manifest destiny and cries of "Fifty-four forty or fight," the gold-rush invasion of 30, 000 outsiders, and the jurisdictional dispute in the San Juan Islands that spawned the Pig War. The author looks at the Esquimalt-based fleet in the decade before British Columbia joined Canada and the Navy's relationship with coastal First Nation over the five decades that preceded the Great War.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Narrative of a Voyage to the Northwest Coast of America in the Years 1811, 1812, 1813, and 1814, or the First American Settlement on the Pacific I felt justly proud of this notice of my unpretending work, especially that the latter should have contributed, as it did, to the amicable settlement of the then pending difficulties. I have flattered myself ever since, that it belonged to the historical literature of the great country, which by adoption has become mine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gabriel Franchere, an explorer who was among the very white European settlers to venture to what is now British Columbia and the Northwesterly United States, recounts here his journeys by sea and land. Beginning first in Montreal, Franchere makes his way to New York where a ship is preparing for an expedition around South America, and onwards to the northwesterly reaches of North America, is soon to set sail. Franchere begins by detailing the various crew members who were aboard the vessel - the Tonquin - whose mission was to make its way up the little-charted, faraway coastline. Eventually the Tonquin and its crew reach the Columbia river. Noting the river's width, a decision is made to journey into it and discover the mysterious lands beyond. Meetings are soon made with previously unknown Native American tribes, and the company's decides to make a permanent presence in the area, staging multiple expeditions inland. Later in the book Franchere takes part in explorations across lands which would later host the great cities and towns of the USA's west coast. A fascinating account of what the undeveloped locality looked like at the opening of the 19th century, Franchere writes in a digestible and plain style which his editor aptly compares to that of Daniel Defoe. Reproduced from an edition of 1854, this book also contains the three original illustrations, together with short preface by the editors.
