Featured Books:

Immigrants – Stories of Vancouver’s People, published in 2009 by The Vancouver Courier newspaper, explores the many immigrant groups who came to Vancouver over the past century and a half. Packed with photos, reminiscences and descriptions of actual journeys by sailing ship, steam train, and overland trek, Immigrants covers both Vancouver’s prominent communities, including the Chinese, English, Scottish and East Indian, as well as more than a dozen other immigrant groups who left their stamp on a corner of the city, from the Italians and Portuguese of Commercial Drive to the Greeks of West Broadway.

Written by award-winning journalist Lisa Smedman, Immigrants - Stories of Vancouver's People is a companion piece to her previous book Vancouver - Stories of a City. Based on articles that also appeared in The Vancouver Courier, it expands upon these original stories, and is nearly 300 glossy pages long.
