Description: Montreal: McGill-Queen's University Press, 1989. First Edition. Hardcover. ISBN: 0773507175. DJ and boards show light shelf wear, DJ is sun-faded on spine.; A tight solid book. Dust jacket in Mylar jacket protector. ; 9.1 X 5.9 X 1.3 inches; 336 pages; "(Henry) Doyle (1874-1961) was founder and first general manager of a major consolidation of packing companies, British Columbia Packers Association (established in 1902), which became British Columbia Packers Ltd, one of the few pioneer fish-packing companies that remains viable today. He was recognised by friends and enemies alike as the unofficial industry historian not only for British Columbia but also for Alaska and the Pacific US coastal states. Doyle was a voracious collector of "intelligence," whose extensive papers, now stored in the archives of the University of British Columbia, constitute the only comprehensive insider's history of the rise of the industry. Newell has culled this collection of documents for revealing highlights, important trends, and events within this profitable industry. These documents are reproduced in the text and are supported by editorial essays, annotations, a statistical appendix, and a lengthy glossary of historical terms. The result is an intriguing combination of both the personal and the scholarly view of this industry through its most exciting and critical years.". Very Good+ in Very Good+ dust jacket .
