British Columbia History Online

An online encyclopedia of British Columbia History

A project of the British Columbia Historical Federation

This is a beginning project as of October 2011

Many aspects of British Columbia history are not found, or are sketchily covered, in other online sources. We want to make this site your preferred site for BC history, where you can actually find the details you are looking for!

Please read Submission Guidelines for instructions how to submit materials to this new website. WE NEED YOUR HELP! Your name will be published online with your article.
