Description
The many lost communities of British Columbia's Boundary country, which stretches from Osoyoos east to the Kootnays, are reborn with the help of 150 photographs, a dozen maps and a factual and entertaining text. Garnet Basque interviewed old-timers and scoured newspaper archives to create these entertaining accounts.
