Book excerpt: China Cabin is an account of the restoration of the aft deck-house of the wooden sidewheel paddle steamship China, built in 1867. The 20 feet by 46 feet fragment is the only existing relic in the world of the ships built by one of America's foremost wooden ship designer and builder--William Henry Webb (1816-1899). Webb designed and built 137 exceptional wooden ships, from an iron-clad warship sold to Napoleon III of France to famous Clipper sailing ships. China was constructed in 1866-67 for initiation of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company's (PMSSC) transpacific mail, freight and passenger service from San Francisco to Hong Kong, and from China via Yokohama, Japan. Deemed by some to be obsolete at birth because more efficient and fire-resistant metal screw-propelled steamships were being built in the United Kingdom, China was laid off by PMSSC in 1882. Sold for scrap in 1885, China was set afire for her metals, on the Tiburon peninsula in 1886. However, all potentially saleable items were saved before burning, including the aft deckhouse, composed of the Social Hall and the staterooms of the ship's surgeon and chief engineer. The structures saved were sold and was used as a residence or, partitioned across the middle, as two residences, for 93 years. Resting on pilings along the shore of Belvedere Cove, it was to be demolished by 1979 to allow for open-space at its site. Belvedere-Tiburon Landmarks Society, led by Beverly Wright Bastian Meyers, stepped forward to save this historical reminder of early wooden sidewheel paddle steamships, one of the most significant maritime historical structures on the West Coast of the United States. Invitations to a Captain's Dinner on the restored China Cabin on 11 July, 1986, marked completion of the magnificent restoration to its state when it was first-built. The cost was near to a million dollars, a few pennies short of the cost of constructing the entire original wooden sidewheel paddle steamship China. The whole cost was borne by the Belvedere-Tiburon Landmarks Society's fund raising and volunteer activities, fulfilling its original pledge to the penny.

Download or read book Celebration written by Published by the Province of British Columbia, Canada and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2018-09-10 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinese Canadians have been among the earliest of settlers to this land we now call British Columbia. This book celebrates a community whose legacy can be found as physical traces in the landscape, and in the social and economic transformations that have occurred over the decades in the larger society. As a result of the 2014 apology, supported by all members of the legislative assembly, for historic laws directly and specifically imposed on Chinese Canadians by past provincial governments, a number of legacy projects were formulated. These projects, including this book, Celebration: Chinese Canadian Legacies in British Columbia, were developed and advised by a council consisting of community leaders and academics (in total, 20 members and two co-chairs). As with all legacy projects, this book reflects the goals of educating the public and increasing awareness of past discriminatory practices. As well, it celebrates heritage values and the community’s achievements. By focusing on individual stories, the book’s intention is to illustrate and contextualize the development and history of Chinese Canadians, recognizing their perseverance, bearing, and dignity while enduring the hardships resulting from the overt racism of the late 19th and early 20th century.

Book Synopsis China After Seven Years of War by : Hollington K. Tong
Download or read book China After Seven Years of War written by Hollington K. Tong and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2012-11-07 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic book was written by Hollington K. Tong whilst China was still in the clutches of war, and contains an affective account of what life was like within the country at that time. Extract : 'The Chinese believe that all things under heaven work together for good. An evil comes but will not long stay. No matter how a story begins, it has a happy ending. During seven years of war, the Chinese have suffered misery. There have been broken homes and broken hearts. There have been separations and dislocations. There have been worries about food and about clothes and about innumerable things. The war years are not the first in which the Chinese have suffered. In their best times, they were afflicted with poverty. The majority of them are poor by birth. On top of poverty there have been floods, droughts, civil wars, each bringing untold suffering. All these calamities soon passed. The Chinese rose after each, not only unbeaten but stronger through the discipline of hardships which, down the centuries, they have learned to endure and overcome. The present war has brought the worst of the worst to the Chinese people. Seven years is the longest that any evil has remained with them, but it has not been long enough to wear out people who, for thousands of years, have suffered hardships and privations, and have survived. This long war will end as all other evils have ended, and there will come a better day. Until it comes, the Chinese have the spirit to smile in the face of hardships and to carry on a spirit which has sustained them through the calamities of the seven years of this war as it sustained them through calamities of the past. It is the spirit of her teeming millions of farmers, from whom most of the five million men of China's army were drawn, and from whose fields comes the food for the army. It is the spirit of her laborers, her mechanics and engineers who have built China's wartime railways, highways, water ways, and other arteries of communication, and who work in China's arsenals to keep the guns supplied with ammunition. It is the spirit of China's women as well as her men. The people of China, despite the stress and strain of war, have carried on. They continue to make love, to get married, to give birth to babies and to support growing families on meager incomes. Seven years is a long time, during which many things can happen and many things have happened to Teng Chan.'

Book Synopsis The Life and Times of Texas Fosbery by : Karen Piffko
Download or read book The Life and Times of Texas Fosbery written by Karen Piffko and published by Heritage House Publishing Co. This book was released on 2000 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1940s and 1950s, with the BC Interior ripe for development, Texas Fosbery moved from breaking horses and driving cattle through the Cariboo to driving Caterpillar tractors and breaking roads through the wilds of Kitimat, Kemano, the Nass Valley and the Queen Charlotte Islands. Along the way he moiled for gold in the Yukon, worked at Hell's Gate for the Fisheries Commission and flew small planes to isolated northern lakes. Tex lived his life to the full in a time and place where there were fewer restrictions and supports than there are today. When they got into scrapes, Tex and his brother Tony had to find their own way out. Admittedly "the youngest hobos ever" during the Great Depression, their rough-and-ready beginnings prepared them for years of keeping heavy equipment running "with French safes and haywire," as well as surviving the freaks of weather and machinery that made bush flying in BC a hazardous occupation. Tex's reminiscences are a fascinating and often humorous story of the early years of the British Columbia Interior.
