Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sunset Canada, British Columbia and Beyond: An Account of Its Settlement; Its Progress From the Early Days to the Present, Including a Review of the Hudson's Bay Company
One who has cruised to Bermuda or Porto Rico from the eastern seaboard of the United States has known the joys of Atlantic travel, but he has not crossed the Atlantic Ocean. In the same way, the tourist who has crossed British Columbia has known the joys of the mountains. He has placed his feet on glacial ice, followed trails to snowy peaks, prowled among forbidding chasms and plucked ?owers from the terraces of the valleys. Ang ling, hunting, canoeing, camping - all the sports of the Alpinist have contributed to those rare days of his excur sion into one of the most satisfying regions of the North American continent.
