Description
This book traces the development of the route through the Fraser Canyon from the early Fur Traders' Trail, to the Cariboo Wagon Road, to the present-day Super Highway. The magnificent Fraser Canyon provided passage between coastal and interior British Columbia for centuries before the Europeans arrived, though the dangerous journey frequently claimed lives. With photographs and written history, this book traces the development of the route through the canyon from the early fur traders' trail, to the Cariboo Wagon Road, to the present-day super highway.
