Russian California, 1806-1860
Author: James R. Gibson
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 640
Book Description
The development of the Russian state was marked by a steady growth of population and especially territory. Its colonial expansion was mainly an eastward movement in search of profitable resources, the way west being blocked by other European powers and the way south by other empires (Ottoman and Chinese). The push to the east proceeded rapidly and distantly, being eased not only by the absence of foreign opposition and native disunity but also by Siberia's interwoven river network and the North Pacific's convenient causeway of the Aleutian chain, plus the lure of 'soft gold' (furs) in the form of Siberian sables and Pacific sea otters.

About the Book The Canoe Maker’s Son takes you on a glorious adventure from the tropics of Hawaiʻi to the open sea, to rugged coasts and dark forests, and to the Indians of the Pacific Northwest. A story of shanghai, survival, and surprising ancestry. “My great-great-great-grandfather, ʻEleu, was born in 1773,” the old man paused, watching his grandson’s face light up with excitement. “He grew up to be a canoe maker just like his father before him. Both were in service to Kalaniʻōpuʻu, the great chief of Hawaiʻi Island. Not only were they canoe makers to the king, but ʻEleu went to the Pacific Northwest Coast on a great tall ship.” “What? Papa, I can’t believe it.” “It’s true, boy. Now, let me tell the story of the canoe maker’s son.”
