Bibliography

When I began doing my research in preparation for writing Lost in Barkerville, literature on the subject was readily available for loan in libraries. When I came back some years later to refresh my memory on the subject before starting a sequel to Lost in Barkerville, I found that a lot of the material now was only available for reading in the library. Maybe this was because of the age of some of the books, but it made my research a little more daunting than it had been before.

This bibliography site will be an ongoing attempt to gather titles about the Caribou gold rush that can still be had from libraries plus new literature that has come out on the subject:
