Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 3rd Printing. Price clipped dust jacket has light edgewear, small repair bottom front corner, text has gift inscription on front end page, otherwise without flaw. 6 X 9" 236 pages, from 1974. From the Company's beginning on July 1, 1889, to its end seventy years later, more than fifty ships carrying Union Steamship colours battled great odds to maintain the tenuous link between 4,000 miles of rugged coast and civilization. Whistle UP the Inlet is their story, one full of names like Camosun, Cardean and the Lady Rose MV (still sailing), and incidents that would seem almost incredible if written as fiction. From its early history to the Klondike Gold Rush, from boom to bust, from two world wars to the excursion heyday of Bowen Island, here is a sea story that catches the pulse and character of the British Columbia coast. With an Appendices listing the names, and a little background information, of the Master Mariners; Names of the Executives; and details about each ship in the Union Steamship Fleet from 1889 to 1957. Illustrated with vintage, glossy black/white photographs and map.
