"Contains material mainly based upon observations and collections made by the author during the Williams College expedition of 1860 to southern Labrador and during a cruise up the coast to Hopedale in 1864, organized by Wm. Bradford, the American marine artist. Each trip is described with notes on flora, fauna, geology, and Eskimos. Results from three Canadian expeditions in the latter 19th century are also brought into the text of the other chapters, which deal with physical geography, history, fisheries, Eskimos, geology of the coastal region, zoology, and botany.
