It was the summer of ’43 on a Cariboo ranch. He was 12 and had to become a man. If you were a man, you could become a cowboy. Join the author on this nostalgic look back on the joys, frustrations and observations of growing up and discovering where he belongs. Excerpt from Eldon Lee's foreword: “This book by Alan Fry is probably the best book ever written on ranch life in the Cariboo. His account of everyday events is so perceptive and so true to the mark that all we country types yearn to re-experience its joys, and its miseries. The Ranch on the Cariboo is a good book and while it may not make a pretty sight to the tractor jockeys, by damn it is authentic; I should know because I was raised on a similar ranch just 18 miles north.”

An isolated Cariboo ranch with six-month-long, sub-zero winters was a startling contrast to California but to the Lee boys it promised huge adventure. Between them they had one year of formal education but a dedicated mother and home learnin' seemed to work. Before it was over Dr. Eldon had delivered 4,000 babies and Reverend Todd had written a host of books.

"Either the whisky goes or I go." These words were uttered by the author's great grandmother after a harrowing trip by riverboat and stagecoach to her new husband's ranch on the raw frontier of British Columbia's Cariboo country. This is a memoir about her great grandson's adventures and the hazards of herding cattle over unfamiliar territory into the huge alpine back-country of Empire Valley-BC's third largest ranch. Mack Bryson's entertaining stories of life as a cowboy and rancher provide a vivid portrait of the Canadian West as he moved from using horse-drawn equipment, to diesel tractors, to airplanes to get the challenging job done. A Cowboy's Life recounts one man's journey across a rapidly vanishing landscape. From crossing roaring rivers with cattle and horses, to getting bucked off into the rocks and knocked unconscious two weeks before his wedding, to forest fires burning up camping supplies, to fights with poachers who want him out of their way so they can hunt on private land, Mack tells the colourful story of his family, their beloved dogs and horses, and the ranching life. This is an amazing story, told with humour and grace, about a young man's adventures that saw him achieve success in an industry where one misstep could ruin him and his family....

British Columbia is blessed with spectacular beauty and diversity, from its coastal shores and temperate rainforests to the Rocky Mountains, from its southern deserts to the northern sub-Arctic tundra. This book will take you on a wondrous and extensive journey through British Columbia in all its seasons, divulging not only its varied landscapes, but displaying some of the abundantly rich nuances of plant and animal life, many existing nowhere else in Canada. The book will showcase rarely seen wildflowers, berries ready for the picking, as well as mushrooms, lichens, mosses, and ferns all fighting for light on the forest floors. It will unveil unique wildlife behaviour, colourfully painted insects, pesky rodents, stunning birdlife (and their lovably whimsical offspring), and a profusion of majestic land and marine mammals. Images of Vancouver and Victoria, as well as abandoned relics from the past returning to nature all complement British Columbia’s natural beauty, becoming essential to the inherent mosaic that defines this province. With its varied and wondrous landscapes, graced by its diversity of flora and fauna, British Columbia is arguably one of the most unique gems of this planet, all the while shouting out for its preservation. www.frank-townsley.pixels.com

Country Roads Of British Columbia written by Liz Bryan and has been published by Heritage House Publishing Co this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2008 with History categories.
In Country Roads of British Columbia, Liz Bryan explores and celebrates the amazing landscapes and traces the early history of Canada's westernmost province. Through 18 picturesque country journeys, mostly in the Interior between the Rockies and the Coast Mountains, she takes readers through some of the most diverse and beautiful scenery in the country. British Columbia has everything: forests, rivers, lakes, grasslands, alpine peaks, sagebrush plateaus, desert valleys and badlands. This diversity can be explained in part by the province's remarkable geological history: it is not one land, but several, formed over time by unstoppable tectonic forces andmodified by volcanic activity and glacial ice. Much of the human history of the province, which closely follows the patterns of its geology, can be discovered along the network of roads stitching the province together. Traces of the Native peoples' ancestral presence are found, along with those of the fur traders, explorers, gold miners, ranchers and homesteaders who settled here. In both her text and her full-color photographs, Bryan demonstrates just how beautiful British Columbia truly is.
