WILFRED GRENFELL, HIS LIFE AND WORK, With sketches reproduced from
letters of Dr. Grenfell, 1959, hb, 270 pp, by Kerr, xchurch library,
vg cond, This man founded a mission in Labrador and cared for the
Eskimos and people of Newfoundland and Labrador, spending his life in
their physical and spiritual care. He is responsible for introducing
the reindeer to that part of the world I believe, which allowed the
children to have milk for nutrition. The forward closes with "I
commend the book to its readers in the knowledge that its author,
having had access to the family and Grenfell Associations' documents,
and having spent some time on the Coast, has given us an accurate and
understanding account of the life of one whose name will always be
remembered as one of the great missionaries, and wherever the quality
of mercy is recognized." Numerous hospitals and services were
introduced to Labrador by Grenfell, an amazing man, "Grenfell met with
opposition from governments and from unscrupulous traders who
exploited the fishermen. This biography tells of his struggle against
them, and against poverty, disease, and the harshness of a barren land
in sub-arctic seas. It is the story of man who aspired to live as
Christ lived. Grenfell loved adventure, but above all he loved
people. " $16
