Just east of sundown : the Queen Charlotte Islands / by Charles Lillard.

Lillard, Charles. (Author).

Summary:

"The Queen Charlotte Islands have always been a half-legendary land of mists and mystery, set off and seemingly different from the rest of the coast. Human occuption goes back some 9,000 years, with intriguing hints of a people there before the Haida. Although the islands were "discovered" by Juan Perez, a Spaniard, in 1774, records indicate that voyagers from Asia had arrived much earlier. This is a story of people - Edenshaw, Weah, Davidson, Dawson, Collison and others - from Haida chiefs and carvers to European explorers and settlers.
Just East of Sundown presents the whole picture of these islands, from the fascinating legends of prehistory through the boom-and-bust days of mining and logging to the recent creation of national and international parks. Gwaii Haanas, the Douth Moresby National Park Reserve, signals the beginning of a new stage in the long and intricate story of the Charlottes."--Pub. desc.
