_Outlook:_ "It is a series of sketches of Grenfell's work in Labrador. A
very rare picture the author has given of a very rare man: a true story
of adventure which we should like to see in the hands of every boy and
of every man of whatever age who still retains anything of a boyish
heroism in his soul."
_N. Y. Globe_: "Mr. Duncan has given a very moving picture of the
dreadfully hard life of the northern fishermen. He has included dozens
of the little cameos of stories, true stories, as he vouches, full of
human nature as it is exhibited in primitive conditions."
_Congregationalist_: "Norman Duncan draws vivid pictures of the Labrador
and the service which Dr. Grenfell has rendered to its people. It is a
fascinating tale and told with real enthusiasm and charm. The unusual
stage of action and the chivalrous quality of the hero, once known, lay
hold upon the imagination and will not let go."
