The Pacific Northwest : its discovery and early exploration by sea, land, and river / Edward W. Nuffield.

Nuffield, E. W. (Author).

Summary:

The great Fraser and Columbia river systems were and are the key to the Pacific Northwest. The race for early dominance over these rich fur-bearing routes pitted American sea captain Robert Gray against British navigator John Meares and land-and-river explorer David Thompson from Canada. Also chronicled in these pages are the extraordinary Lewis and Clark expeditions, the unbelievable continental trek of the Overlanders, the intimate stories of intrepid explorers Simon Fraser, Alexander Mackenzie - and many more.
