Drawing on thousands of letters, Laura Ishiguro offers insights into epistolary topics including familial intimacy and conflict, everyday concerns such as boredom and food, and what correspondents chose not to write. She shows that Britons used the post to navigate family separations and understand British Columbia as an uncontested settler home. These letters and their writers played a critical role in laying the foundations of a powerful settler order that continues to structure the province today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura Ishiguro\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0774838442\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780774838443\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of British Columbia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Laura Ishiguro","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49096717041919,"sku":"9780774838443","price":37.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/nothing-to-write-home-about-laura-ishiguro-9780774838443","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
