''Down To The Sea: Yarns From The Labrador'' is a book written by Wilfred Thomason Grenfell and published in 1910. The book is a collection of stories about the author’s experiences as a medical missionary in the rugged and remote region of Labrador, a province of Canada. The stories are filled with adventure, hardship, and the struggles of the people living in this harsh environment. Grenfell shares his encounters with the Inuit people, their culture, and their way of life. He also describes the challenges he faced as a doctor, including the lack of medical resources and the difficulties of traveling in the region. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into a unique part of the world and the people who call it home. Grenfell’s vivid storytelling and his compassion for the people he served make ''Down To The Sea'' a timeless classic of adventure and inspiration.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.
