About

In the third of the ‘Westcoast Series’, we explore the exciting events and history of Victoria and British Columbia’s west coast through the last half of the 1800’s.  To tell this tale, we follow the life of ‘Vickie’, the precocious daughter of Maggie and Mark Holland, who we met in the first volume, Westcoast Legacy.  A life filled with change and challenges, during periods of growth that included epidemics, gold rushes, race-riots, opium, gambling and whore houses.  We see Vickie confronting all of these with a modern, sometimes contraversial approach, determined to change the status quo and improve the life of women.
