Between 1959 and 1966, the late CBC Radio journalist Imbert Orchard travelled across British Columbia with recording engineer Ian Stephen interviewing nearly a thousand of the province’s pioneers. The resulting collection — 2,700 hours of audiotapes describing both extraordinary events and everyday experiences — is considered by historians to be one of the best sources of primary information about the province. To the general public, however, the tales in these tapes remain virtually unknown. Combining text, archival photographs and the original sound recordings from the CBC Archives onto three CDs, Voices of British Columbia draws 24 stories from this collection to immerse us in daily life in the early 20th century. You’ll meet Sarah Glassey, a spirited homesteader who carried a rifle and bagged more birds than any man in the Kispiox Valley. You’ll hear Bill LaChance, the sole survivor of the 1910 Glacier Snowslide, describe that tragic avalanche. And you’ll discover how Great Chief Kwah of Fort St. James spared the life of James Douglas, future governor of British Columbia. By turns sad, contemplative, insightful and funny, these stories reveal as much about the spirit and resilience of people as they do about the history of the province.

Excerpt from British Columbia From the Earliest Times to the Present Merely to state the facts of history is not difficult for one pos sessed of the information; but'to give a correct impression of the conditions existing in the early days, to give what is called the local colour, necessitates personal contact with original sources. The authors have for many years made it a point at every opportunity to interview the pioneers, many of whom are now gone, and they have received at first hand the stories of the lives of those who took part in the stirring events of pioneer days. And this, after all, is but another proof that history, properly so called and properly written, must find its basis in the biographies of the actors in the scene. In the beginning our Province lay so. Far removed from its natural sources of su'pply that none but the more daring and intrepid had courage to face the difficulties of a journey of thousands of miles from home and civilization into an unknown wilderness, there to lay the foundations of a great empire on the Pacific slope. And this statement holds good even to the present time: for it requires to - day the same energy, ability and disregard of personal comfort to pioneer the unknown, uninhabited and almost inaccessible portions of the Province that characterized the brave men and women who originally came here. There is no page of history more replete with varied incident than that which contains the stories of the pioneers of this country - not alone those who came with the gold rushes, but those who, in later years, developed the almost unknown interior of the Province, who laid the foundations of the industries of the interior and built up the great cities of the coast.

A collection of historical stories about the early indigenous people, settlers, trappers, and adventurers of BC's Cariboo Chilcotin.A compilation of stories that meld both culture and bloodlines, CHILCOTIN CHRONICLES by Sage Birchwater is set in the wild and untamed country of central British Columbia's Chilcotin Plateau. West of the Fraser River, this high country is contained by an arc of impenetrable mountain ranges that separates it from the Pacific Coast. The first inhabitants of this region were fiercely independent, molded by the land itself. Those who came later were drawn to this landscape with its mysterious aura of freedom, where time stood still and where a person could find solace in the wilderness and never be found.Birchwater reaches back to first European contact in British Columbia when the indigenous population spoke forty of Canada's fifty-four languages and seventy of Canada's one hundred dialects. The land known today as the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast was already an entity when Alexander Mackenzie arrived in 1793. Bonds of friendship, mutual support and family ties had long been established between the Dakelh, Tsilhqot'in and Nuxalk, giving cohesiveness to the region.CHILCOTIN CHRONICLES is about the men and women caught in the interface of cultures and the changing landscape. Indigenous inhabitants and white newcomers brought together by the fur brigades, then later by the gold rush, forged a path together, uncharted and unpredictable. Birchwater discovers that their stories, seemingly disconnected, are intrinsically linked together to create a human eco-system with very deep roots. The lives of these early inhabitants give substance to the landscape. They give meaning to the people who live there today.
