Publisher Description:
A Trip to Labrador contains the letters and journal of Edward Caldwell Moore, who accompanied Sir Wilfred Grenfell to Labrador in 1905 on the hospital ship Strathcona. A Presbyterian minister and professor at Harvard University, Moore writes of his impressions of the land and the people and of the difficulties of travel and communications. He describes, in surprisingly frank terms, both the positive and negative aspects of Grenfell's early efforts as a doctor, justice of the peace and missionary.

He and his wife, Linda (Poole) of Belleoram, Newfoundland, now make their home in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.
