He reveals the pervasive sectarianism, the tawdry political world of St John's, the rudimentary conditions aboard the fishing schooners, and the poverty of the Labrador "livyers," the permanent white settlers who had intermarried with the Inuit. He provides fresh details of the lives of the Moravian Brethren, the first missionaries to the Native population, and comments on the wildlife, the natural environment, and the general disposition of the countryside. Curwen's candid remarks about Grenfell reveal facets of the young missionary and social reformer not found elsewhere. The introduction and annotations by Ronald Rompkey, Grenfell's biographer, establish the historical, political, and social contexts of the journal. Rompkey has supplemented Curwen's private account with official letters and reports from Grenfell and other members of the expedition as well as numerous photographs taken by both Curwen and Grenfell to publicize their work. 410 0$aMcGill-Queen's/Hannah Institute studies in the history of medicine, health, and society ;$v3. 606 $aMissions, Medical$zNewfoundland and Labrador$zLabrador$xHistory 606 $aMissions, English$zNewfoundland and Labrador$zLabrador$xHistory 607 $aLabrador (N.L.)$xHistory 607 $aLabrador (N.L.)$xSocial conditions 615 0$aMissions, Medical$xHistory. 615 0$aMissions, English$xHistory. 676 $a971.8/202 700 $aCurwen$b Eliot$01631968 701 $aRompkey$b Ronald$01096741 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815527103321 996 $aLabrador odyssey$93970844 997 $aUNINA
