Download or read book The West Beyond the West written by Jean Barman and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British Columbia is regularly described in superlatives both positive and negative - most spectacular scenery, strangest politics, greatest environmental sensitivity, richest Aboriginal cultures, most aggressive resource exploitation, closest ties to Asia. Jean Barman's The West beyond the West presents the history of the province in all its diversity and apparent contradictions. This critically acclaimed work is the premiere book on British Columbian history, with a narrative beginning at the point of contact between Native peoples and Europeans and continuing into the twenty-first century. Barman tells the story by focusing not only on the history made by leaders in government but also on the roles of women, immigrants, and Aboriginal peoples in the development of the province. She incorporates new perspectives and expands discussions on important topics such as the province's relationship to Canada as a nation, its involvement in the two world wars, the perspectives of non-mainstream British Columbians, and its participation in recreation and sports including Olympics. First published in 1991 and revised in 1996, this third edition of The West beyond the West has been supplemented by statistical tables incorporating the 2001 census, two more extensive illustration sections portraying British Columbia's history in images, and other new material bringing the book up to date. Barman's deft scholarship is readily apparent and the book demands to be on the shelf of anyone with an interest in British Columbian or Canadian history.

The account begins in the early nineteenth-century British Empire and then follows Native land policy – and Native resistance to it – in British Columbia from the Douglas treaties in the early 1850s to the formal transfer of reserves to the Dominion in 1938.

Book The British Columbia Indian and His Future  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The British Columbia Indian and His Future Classic Reprint written by R. Whittington and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-28 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Columbia Indian and His Future It is at once conceded that the work is slower among the Indians, and the re sults not so great as among some other races. There is much wickedness amongthem, even in Christian villages, but the same is true among white communities, and in not a few cases the difference would be in favor of the Indian. If we can only get the Indian away from the evil in uences of the bad white man the work would be comparatively easy. History shows clearly that in our work with the Indian we are combatting the wickedness of the white man rather than that of the Indian.
