A Woman's Way Through Unknown Labrador

Bag om A Woman's Way Through Unknown Labrador

""A Woman's Way Through Unknown Labrador"" is a memoir written by Mrs. Leonidas Hubbard, detailing her journey through the uncharted wilderness of Labrador in the early 20th century. The book follows Mrs. Hubbard and her husband, Leonidas, as they embark on a perilous expedition to explore the unknown region of Labrador. However, tragedy strikes when Leonidas perishes during the journey, leaving Mrs. Hubbard alone in the wilderness. Despite her grief and the harsh conditions, Mrs. Hubbard perseveres, relying on her own strength and the help of the indigenous people she encounters along the way. The book is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and a fascinating account of one woman's journey through a truly unknown and untamed land.Friday morning was warm and bright. It seemed wonderful to be having so much fine weather in Labrador, and not a fly or mosquito as yet. The one nuisance we had met was mice or lemmings. They had been busy with my hat in the night, and when I came to put it on that morning I found there was a hole eaten in the crown and a meal or two taken out of the brim. There seemed to be thousands of them, and they ran squealing about everywhere, great fat fellows, some of them as big as grey squirrels. The ground was so perforated with their holes that it reminded one of a porous plaster.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
