Account of a MAJOR Canadian wilderness canoe expedition. . Spine heel erasure has partially extended into the last word of the title. See scan. Odd flaw, it left the "M" of "McGill" in place. Fold out "Map of EASTERN LABRADOR" at book's end with Mina's route and that of her husband's earlier ill fated trip. The fascinating story of this expedition, and the two others, is a Canadian classic. It has been explored in numerous books and articals. Even Margarat Atwood wrote a short booklet "The Labrador Fiasco", about her father's opinion. Page 233 refers to the Atwood booklet. .
