Between 1889 and 1959, the vessels of the Union Steamship Company of BC bound the coast from north to south as firmly as the steel tracks of the Canadian Pacific Railway bound the nation from east to west. The Union's black and red funnelled steamers and their trademark whistle were a fixture of weekly life at virtually every logging camp and settlement between Vancouver and the Alaska Panhandle. Based on years of painstaking archival research, as well as hundreds of hours of interviews. The Good Company: An Affectionate History of the Union Steamships is a fascinating "from-the-deck" account of this important institutions ships and crews. Meet "Wee" Angus McNeill, the most superstitious of all Union officers; Captain Bob Wilson, who refused to consult his charts while he was on watch; Arthur Jarvis, the "Black Mate" who wrestled obstinate loggers and pigs from the decks of the infamous Cassiar; and the Cheslakee, the ill-fated vessel whose final death toll from its 1913 capsizing is still debated. Writer Tom Henry won the Lieutenant Governor's Medal for historical writing for this lively and entertaining history. With over a hundred photographs, many of them never published before, The Good Company captures the spirit of this bygone west coast institution, and brings to life a legend.., D&M Publishers Incorporated, 1990, London, Sydney, Melbourne: Angus & Robertson, 1983.

He learnt to fly at a BFTS in America and went on the fly Spitfires with No 72 and No 1 Squadrons, finally being awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross in 1944. He was released from service with a record of 4 destroyed and 3 damaged, having taken part in the invasions of North Africa, Sicily and Italy and a stint as an instructor in the art of air to air gunnery in Egypt before finishing the war flying escort missions with No 1 Squadron from Manston in Kent.
