Book Synopsis

This print-on-demand title is available by request from most booksellers.

A much-loved Canadian classic, Pauline Johnson's Legends of Vancouver was first published in 1911 and has been in print ever since. Through her poetic, romantic retelling of these Native legends, Pauline Johnson takes the reader back to a time long ago, before the city of Vancouver was built, when the land belonged to the Squamish people. These legends explain the stories behind many prominent natural features in and around Vancouver, such as the mountains known as The Lions and Siwash Rock in Stanley Park.
