“The journey which this book records was undertaken chiefly for the study of birds, but the author became greatly interested in the scenery, the geology, the flowers and trees, the fish and fishermen, the Eskimos and Eskimo dogs, the Hudson bay company’s posts, the Moravians, and Dr. Grenfell’s mission.” (R. of Rs.)
