Outposts and Bushplanes: Go back in time to a place where ingenuity and perseverance were all on needed to make a go of things in northern B.C. Wilderness. A celebration of the people and lifestyles of this once-remote frontier, Outposts and Bushplanes commemorates the region's rich recent past history. The book also describes the vital role played by the relatively new light aircraft of the day and the skill of their capable pilots and engineers. Adventure-lovers and outdoors people will enjoy reading about the fine folk of the Northwest and their often-daunting exploits as they settled this isolated region during the middle of the last century.

Written in a descriptive and down-to-earth manner, Outposts and Bushplanes returns readers to the glory days of central British Columbia. Author Bruce Lamb brings his audience along as the flies in and out of the far-flung northern bush and introduces them to just some of the resilient characters that populated this area.
