Kilts on the Coast

Author: Jan Peterson

Just released!

When the Hudson's Bay Company decided to establish its new Pacific coast headquarters at Fort Victoria on Vancouver Island in 1843, the Island was a pristine paradise.

It was Scots who came to the Island to manage the Company's business, engaging in the fur trade and establishing coal-mining ventures around what is now Nanaimo.

From founding father James Douglas and other high-placed Company men to the miners who were brought over to work Nanaimo's mines, the Scottish influence on Vancouver Island was indelible. Nanaimo author and historian Jan Peterson focuses on events and people who sparked settlement and growth in BC's first Crown Colony and delves deep into the roots of the Island's Scottish presence, tracing the lives of such pioneers as Dr. William Tolmie, Robert Dunsmuir and their descendants.
