Includes the area extending from Maple Bay to Lake Cowichan, and from Cowichan Bay and Cowichan Station north to Westholme. Puts the stories of these women in the context of their times, therefore the reader will find that the Valley's history has been divided into naturally occurring sections showing where development took place. The first part of each section sketches the history of that period and is followed by the life stories of various women who settle in the valley at that time." - Preface.
