Abstract

This article presents a critique of the book "Canadian Camp Life," by Frances Herring and how it addresses the relationship of British Columbia to Canada. Being the westernmost province of Canada, British Columbia is involved with the concepts of differences between edge and centre as well as the permeability of borders. In her book, Herring explored the province's complex cross-border relations and the role of gender and race in maintaining those borders.
