Daniel Clayton here reviews a series of encounters by explorers,
traders, and politicians with the territory and native people of
Vancouver Island in the late-18th and early-19th centuries. The
book is divided into three parts - Spaces of European Exploration;
Geographies of Capital; and Circulating Knowledge and Power. Each
section examines the ways in which natives and Westerners were
positioned in these phases of exploration, trade and imperial
aggrandizement and chart how native and Western interests and
fortunes became intertwined and then later diverged as Vancouver
Island was fashioned as imperial space.
