Author Chuck Davis is in the process of compiling a
history of Metropolitan Vancouver for his next book.
If this is your field of interest be prepared to spend
a lot of time going through the marvelous results of his
research that he has placed on this website.
Chuck and his book "The Greater Vancouver Book"
played a significant role in inspiring me to embark
