Title: The Chilliwack Story
Publisher: Chilliwack Museum and Historical Society, Chilliwack BC
Publication Date: 2007
Binding: Hardcover
A thorough and comprehensive history of Chilliwack, British Columbia, it's people, places and industry, which developed along the old heritage routes to the interior of BC. "From Greendale to Popkum and from Yarrow to Chilliwack, a series of small communities developed along these roads, often with just a school, general store (with post office) and church. These centres have grown over the years as urbanization has swelled the local population, but - and this is important to the identity of Chilliwack - people still say that they come from Vedder Crossing or Rosedale or Sardis. This book is an attempt to, at the very least, recognize that Chilliwack is a community of villages spread along these older heritage routes.".
