The Long Labrador Trail

The Long Labrador Trail is a memoir written by Dillon Wallace, an American lawyer and adventurer, about his journey through the rugged wilderness of Labrador, Canada, in the late 19th century. The book chronicles Wallace’s experiences as he and his team of dogsled drivers traverse the harsh terrain, facing extreme weather conditions, dangerous wildlife, and challenging terrain. Along the way, he encounters the indigenous Inuit people and learns about their culture and way of life. Wallace also shares his observations on the natural beauty of the region, including its flora and fauna. The Long Labrador Trail is a compelling account of one man’s determination to explore and conquer the untamed wilderness of Labrador, and is a must-read for anyone interested in adventure and the great outdoors.The real work of the trip was now to begin, the hard portaging, the trail finding and trail making, and we were to break the seal of a land that had, through the ages, held its secret from all the world, excepting the red man. This is what we were thinking of when we gathered around our camp fire that evening, and filled and lighted our pipes and puffed silently while we watched the newborn stars of evening come into being one by one until the arch of heaven was aglow with the splendor of a Labrador night. And when we at length went to our bed of spruce boughs it was to dream of strange scenes and new worlds that we were to conquer.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
