The Online Home of Harbour Publishing’s ‘Encyclopedia of BC’
The hardcover version of the Encyclopedia of BC (EBC) finally went out of print after selling 30,000 copies, but it continues to be updated and expanded in this online version. Editor Daniel Francis still combs through the newspapers every morning looking at deaths, mergers, election results, name changes and other developments that affect existing EBC entries.
In addition, they have added a number of major Pacific Northwest resources to the KnowBC portal, including many of Harbour Publishing’s most significant publications, including:
- Marine Life of the Pacific Northwest: A Photographic Encyclopedia of Invertebrates, Seaweeds and Selected Fishes
- The Encyclopedia of Raincoast Place Names
- Raincoast Chronicles 20: Lilies and Fireweed: Frontier Women of British Columbia
- Far West: The Story of British Columbia
- And more
