Stories of the men and women who dug for gold on Williams Creek are told in this new, revised edition of a Canadian bestseller.

The historic town of Barkerville, in the heart of British Columbia, is flourishing again today as it did over 100 years ago, this time under the care of professional and amateur historians.

Author Richard Thomas Wright has unearthed much of the area's history in this book, which chronicles the time, the fortunes and the follies of gold-rush Barkerville. This book brings to life the men and women of the creeks, who came in search of gold and left their mark on B.C. history.

The book includes information on the area, including hikes, campsites, accommodations and places of interest. It features many historic photos and a complete index.
