Short, Steve & Neering, Rosemary IN THE PATH OF THE EXPLORERS Tracing the Expeditions of Vancouver, Cook, Mackenzie, Fraser and Thomson. Vancouver Whitecap Books 1992 1551100185 / 9781551100180 First Edition Softcover Very Good+ Large softcover with french flaps. Ex-library with usual type markings, still in greatcondition, laminated cover. Overall wear is light. Interior pages clean & tight. Illustrated with beautiful colour photos of the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia. 124 pages. In the Path of the Explorers permits us to feel Cook's frustration as he fails again and again to locate the elusive northwest passage, to appreciate anew Fraser's almost fatal hardships in reaching the mouth of the river that now bears his name, and to follow Vancouver as he sails into Burrard inlet, its wooded shores offering no hint of the great city that would one day commemorate his name. These accounts are pulled directly from the explorers diaries and journals....[515]; 8vo Price:
