A Perfect Eden: Encounters by Early Explorers of Vancouver Island

Friends of the BC Archives Lecture

Presented by Michael Layland

Michael will introduce his latest book, a companion to his 2013 The Land of Heart’s Delight. These stories create a multilayered tale of discovery, exploration and encounter, from pre-contact through 1858. The talk will be supported by a presentation of some of the 100-plus illustrations in the book.
