Actually the original publisher - JJ Douglas? - I think is now part of Douglas & McIntyre and might well be interested in someone coming out with a Chinese translation, and the success of that in the Chinese-Canadian market (let alone Singapore or HK) might lead to an update or reprint of the English version.  And same goes for many local histories in BC that Chinese Canadians know nothing about (they don't know too much about "the rest of us" other than waht their media/scholars/politicians say about us).  There's lots of books in English that could use a translation for Chinese readers.....but I don't see much interest in that from Chinese or Chinese Canadian scholars or authors.  That there is no comprehensive history of the gold rushes in Chinese is truly a tragedy....but then CCNC pages start with bleats about railway labour, and what little they say about the gold rush is distorted and a-factual or vague (like Yee's "After the Gold Rush many Chinese left" (without giving actual figures, or saying which gold rush - I'm assuming the Fraser, where the first months of the rush were a "bust" as water levels were high, and Americans and others, including Chinese, did return to California or other parts of the mining sphere in the American West like the Colville Gold Rush; but many stayed in BC throughout the goldfields and ranching communities, and re the canning industry and the market gardening industry in the Lower Mainland.  The claim in Yee and other places t hat Chinese avoided new gold rushes is complete horseshit, they were at all of them and the Governor himself, on numerous occasions, stepped in to admonish Americans that the Chiense had legal rights to mine and should not be harmed or harrassed (see Rock Creek Gold Rush; did you know that Judge Begbie assembled juries from each group of ethnics within the mining community and allowed the use of Chinese in court?  i.e. Germans tried Germans, Chinese tried Chinese,Italians tried Italians etc....Don Hauka's McGowan's War has incredible historical,political and economic information and is very readable; another book you could spend your youthful energies on translating for a Chinese Canadian (or Chinese in general) readership.  There's no translation that I know of for Ormsby or the Akriggs or Bancroft or other major regional historians....... you could make quite the career out of translating lots of them, and would learn something from their content other than the politicized academic-tubthumps you seeem to prefer.
