Features the works of Edward Parker Bedwell, Henry James Warre, John Clayton White and Frederick Whymper. Monograph from an Exhibition at the Maltwood Art Museum and Gallery, University of Victoria June-July 1979. Four British artists who recorded the British Columbia landscape in the third quarter of the nineteenth century constitute the material of this study.

The biographies and catalogue raisonnes which conclude the study are major contributions to the history of Canadian art. - Excerpts from Preface by Martin Seeger, Director, Maltwood Art Museum.
