About This Item
The Good Company: An Affectionate History of the Union Steamships, Henry, Tom. Harbour Publishing, Madeira Park, British Columbia, Canada, 1994. First Edition. 4to up to 12" tall; 152 pages profusely illustrated. Gray boards with gilt titles; mapped yellow endpapers. Both volume and unclipped dustjacket are in collectible condition without marks, tears or folds; a hint of toning to top edge. "The fascinating story of the legendary Union Steamship Company, which operated up and down the BC coast between 1890 and 1955. The Union Steamship Company was an essential part of BC life during the late 1800s and early 1900s. For hundreds of people living along the coast of BC, the Union Steamship Company was the only link to the outside world. In this bright, well-illustrated, genuine history - with 100 photographs, many of them never published before - the heyday of the Union Steamships comes beautifully to life".
