About BC Books Online
BC Books Online was created for anyone interested in BC-published books, and with librarians especially in mind. We'd like to make it easy for library staff to learn about books from BC publishers - both new releases and backlist titles - so you can inform your patrons and keep your collections up to date.
Our site features print books and ebooks - both new releases and backlist titles - all of which are available to order through regular trade channels. Browse our subject categories to find books of interest or create and export lists by category to cross-reference with your library's current collection.
A quick tip: When reviewing the "Browse by Category" listings, please note that these are based on standardized BISAC Subject Codes supplied by the books' publishers. You will find additional selections, grouped by theme or region, in our "BC Reading Lists."
Description
From British Columbia’s most trusted source on travel and recreation comes an updated edition of the most popular guide to the Lower mainland’s best parks, lakes, beaches, and trails, including new chapters on the Callaghan Valley and 1,001 Steps Park.
The best views, biking, beaches, and outings for kids—they’re all here in the fourth edition of the Lower Mainland’s favorite guidebook for day-trippers, described in the clear, upbeat, observant prose that is Jack Christie’s trademark. From Delta to Whistler, West Vancouver to Harrison Hot Springs, detailed directions help you find your way and enjoy the sights en route. This revised edition includes two brand-new chapters: Callaghan Valley in the Whistler mountains, and 1,001 Steps Park on Surrey’s beaches.
