This small, booklet provides a visitor’s introduction to Fort St. John, British Columbia. The volume offers a short summary of the city’s history, then moves to longer sections on transportation, schools, churches, leisure, and resources/economy (particularly the city’s role in the oil and gas industry). Throughout, the volume portrays Fort St. John in a positive light, describing the city as a thriving modern community and an exciting destination. No publication date indicated, but the text’s use of 1966 statistics (and future tense references to 1967) makes a 1966 publication date likely.
