"At a lonely channel-end on the deeply-cut mountainous North Pacific Coast of North America the Indians had a settlement of ancient descent they called Bella Coola. In the summer of 1793 they were much in doubt as to what to make of two fascinating yet disturbing white strangers. These were Captain George Vancouver, R. N. and Alexander Mackenzie, explorers. They were encountered separately, one having come in a huge 'canoe' and other arduously by land. They unwittingly made of Bella Coola that year a memorable near meeting place. Two generations later the white men who followed the first explorers were surveying at Bella Coola to see if the pass and harbour would make a terminus of Canada's first Atlantic-to-Pacific railway. Norwegian colonists came to settle and stay in what looked so like their own familiar fjord country.".

Seller: COOK AND BAKERS BOOKS, PARKSVILLE, VANCOUVER ISLAND, BC, Canada
Book
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Black & White Photographs (illustrator). Inscription on front end page. A very nicely preserved copy with some light soil on the front cover. Alice MacRae Simkin, author of these poems, was born at Upper Canard, Nova Scotia and spent her childhood on an orchard farm at Grand Pre in the Annapolis Valley. Uncomplicated, notably with pessimism, hers is in sharp contrast to much poetry of our time. Her earliest poem in this collection, In The Orchard, was written at age thirteen, her most recent, Mosaic, at sixty-nine. All are appealing in their simplicity and some are deeply moving.
