: in the wake of the Erebus : Alexander Smith, polar voyager, astronomer & goldfields commissioner 1812 "Commander Alexander Smith served the Royal Navy with fearless resolution for seventeen years on the quarterdeck, encountering many adventures on the high seas - an intrepid voyager in the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans. Under the command of Captain James Clark Ross, he became a heroic polar explorer in the north Atlantic and was chosen as First Mate for the epic 1839-1843 British Antarctic Expedition aboard HMS Erebus. The Ross expedition was the first to go where no human being had gone before despite competition from Charles Wilkes' American and Dumont d'Urville's French expeditions. Retiring from the Royal Navy, he was appointed Goldfields Commissioner in Castlemaine during the Australian gold rushes in 1853 and developed a fine reputation as a botanist and naturalist...an extraordinary but forgotten life."--Back cover. 2011. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 910.4(99)"1839/1843":92SMITH, ALEXANDER

Britannia's Navy : on the West Coast of North America, 1812-1914 /Barry Gough ; foreword by Admiral ( "The influence of the Royal Navy on the development of British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest was both effective and extensive. Yet all too frequently, its impact has been ignored by historians, who instead focus on the influence of explorers, fur traders, settlers, and railway builders. In this thoroughly revised and expanded edition of his classic 1972 work, naval historian Barry Gough examines the contest for the Columbia country during the War of 1812, the 1844 British response to President Polk's manifest destiny and cries of "Fifty-four forty or fight," the gold-rush invasion of 30,000 outsiders, and the jurisdictional dispute in the San Juan Islands that spawned the Pig War. The author looks at the Esquimalt-based fleet in the decade before British Columbia joined Canada and the Navy's relationship with coastal First Nations over the five decades that preceded the Great War."-- [2016] • BOOK • 1 copy available. 355.353(42+7)"1812/1914"
