BRITISH COLUMBIA IN THE BALANCE

1846–1871

Esteemed historian Jean Barman brings new insights on seemingly disparate events that converged to lay the foundation of present-day British Columbia. Examining newly accessible private correspondence exchanged with the Colonial Office in London, she pieces together the events that caused the distant colony to join Canadian Confederation, as opposed to becoming one or more American states. $36.95.
