The Quadra Story (Harbour $24.95)
Jeannette Taylor, executive director of the Campbell River Art Gallery, has followed her lively histories of Campbell River and the Discovery Islands with The Quadra Story (Harbour $24.95), now available in paperback. The largest and most populated of the Discovery Islands, the island is named for Captain Bodega y Quadra, the Spanish sea captain who wisely deflected the so-called Nootka Crisis with Captain George Vancouver at Yuquot (Friendly Cove).
