From the dust jacket --

Raincoast Chronicles is an engaging, informative, and virtually unclassifiable journal of regional culture which has become a west coast institution since it first began emanating from the tiny fishing village of Pender harbour ten years ago. When the first five issues were gathered together in a bound volume in 1975 it won the Eatons British Columbia Book Award and established sales records that have never been equalled.

Following Raincoast Chronicles First Five the journal went on to produce a further five issues which were even more enthusiastically received – and this is the material collected in Raincoast Chronicles Six/Ten. Just as entertainingly written as its predecessor, more lavishly illustrated with drawing and colour plates, and covering an even wider range of subjects dear to the hearts of all west coasters, Raincoast Chronicles Six/Ten is a must for all collectors of British Columbiana and a matchless introduction to life on the Pacific frontier for those unlucky enough not to have shared in it.
