Photographs, sketches and advertisements from the past...

Over 230 photographs, sketches and newspaper advertisements illustrate this history of Merritt and the Nicola Valley — the heart of south western British Columbia. Staff and volunteers at the Nicola Valley Museum and Archives researched, wrote and designed this handsome volume. It includes many previously unpublished historical photographs.

The photographs and illustrations are tied together by accounts of the pioneers and life in the Nicola Valley, beginning with the Interior Salish Indians and the fur traders. Coal mining, ranching and logging are also amply illustrated as well as transportation, recreation, sports, culture and the valley communities.

Royalties go to the Nicola Valley Museum Archives Association.

© 1998. 120 pages, 231 b&w illustrations, bibliography and index. 11" x 8 1/2" paperback. Laminated two-color cover.
