A captivating account of the lives of Laura, Christine, and Caroline Lindhard, three sisters who left their home in Stege, Denmark, in 1870 due to war, political turmoil, and limited opportunities, and sought out new lives in the Cariboo region of British Columbia. There are few stories of entrepreneurial, business class women in nineteenth century BC. They didn’t keep diaries or save letters like the ruling class women often did, and they were usually overlooked in newspaper reports. Yet many came into British Columbia in the early years of the gold rush and helped build and sustain the developing communities. This book tells the stories of three sisters—Laura, Christine, and Caroline Lindhard—who arrived in BC from Denmark in the 1870s. Coming of age in Europe, the Lindhard sisters had aspirations that were restricted by societal norms about what women could and should be and do. This is a story of how each of the sisters made a life for themselves: marrying and having children, becoming single parents at an early age, marrying again or not, working together, providing for their children, and making choices that set them on different paths. While their lives diverged at various points, their commitments to each other and the next generation remained strong. The sisters’ stories illustrate the importance of family and community relationships as support structures for women entrepreneurs who combine family responsibilities with earning a living. While they were not heroic in the traditional, patriarchal sense of the word, the Lindhard sisters were powerful, influential members of their families and their community, and their lives reveal much about the complex social fabric of early British Columbia and the unsung contributions of women.

"Lost in Barkerville is a young reader novel in which two students and their teacher, Miss Reid, are on a school field trip to Yale. Once there in Yale, they travel back in time to Fort Yale in 1866. They then travel up the Cariboo Wagon Road to Barkerville, find work there and live for a time. Then their friend is caught up in a murder trial. At first it is thought that Judge Begbie will sentence him to hang, but one of the boys intervenes and the sentence is changed to life in prison. The second boy then arranges for their friend's brother to come to Barkerville and present new evidence to Judge Begbie and their friend is released. The trio finally return "in time" to Fort Yale and meet up once again with the members of their field trip. The author, Bitten Acherman, has done much research into the gold rush period, and she introduces a great deal of factual information into the novel about the Cariboo gold rush, Fort Yale, the Cariboo Wagon Road and Barkerville, with accounts of many of the larger-than life characters of the time, such as Billy Barker and Judge Begbie, but also many of the lesser-known people of the time."--
