Synopsis
This new edition includes a full range of explanatory material, including annotations, numerous illustrations, and maps, as well as a comprehensive index. The text of the Narrative is taken from the 1851 Ithaca, New York, edition, and retains the original spelling and grammatical forms (including mistakes and typographical errors), as well as the nine rather quaint engravings.

This edition will give readers a new and thoughtful insight into the history of British Columbia and its indigenous people, and they will view this early nineteenth-century saga with a humanistic understanding and sensitivity so often lacking in the populace of the past.
