- Author: Hauka, Donald J.Summary:
Could a horde of American miners have delivered British Columbia into the hands of the U.S. in 1859? The author argues that the new colony was a rifle shot away from war and annexation. This is a rollicking tale of corruption, greed, incompetence and company politics that just happens to be true.
