Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Times of Lord Strathcona The 1200 mile journey from Montreal to the barren shores of Labrador severely tested Donald A. Smith's willingness to remain with the Company, but there was no possibility of retracing his steps. What it was in 1838 can scarcely be imagined. Even to-day Labrador is the world's jumping - off place. He was going to a place where only once a year would tidings reach him from the outside world. His companions for the greater part would be Indians and wild fowl, the stoicism of the one and the plaintive note of the other emphasizing the almost overwhelming sense of desolation.
