Where empire, ocean and forest converge, the story of a coast reshapes the fate of a continent. Here, the Pacific Northwest first steps onto the historical stage. These pages still matter today. In The Works of Hubert Howe Bancroft (Volume XXVII): History of the Northwest Coast (Volume I), a master historian assembles a sweeping 19th century historical study of western North America exploration, centred on the early American West Coast and the 18th century Pacific Northwest. Drawing on chronicles of northwest coast exploration history, encounters with the indigenous peoples of Pacific Northwest, and the rival ambitions of Spanish and Russian colonization, Bancroft creates a foundational Pacific Northwest history book: rigorous yet richly readable, vital both as a reference for history students and as an entry point for Pacific Coast frontier studies and the broader classic American history series. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Ideal as an academic research collection volume, this careful edition invites casual readers, scholars and collectors alike to rediscover a landmark account of how the far north-western shore entered the imagination of the world.
