BLAZING PADDLES, Historical Fiction of British Columbia, is the saga of British Columbia - with its rogues and heroes, its dreamers and builders - and it is captured in twelve wonderfully created tales drawn from the wild and sprawling history of Canada's Pacific province.
"The stories run the gamut of BC history, from the mythologies of aboriginal cultures before the coming of the Europeans, through the early fur trade and the Cariboo gold rush right up to a day-before-yesterday story set during Expo 86. The authors are not afraid to tackle the big stuff: death, racism, exile, betrayal, intolerance and spiritual rebirth."ย ย ย ย
