Overview

In 1937 Corsican priest Raymond De Coccola journeyed to Canada's far north and recorded life in a region little altered by modern times. He encounters an isolated, often harsh landscape where daily survival requires ingenuity, endurance and close communal ties.

Spanning detailed travel scenes and reflective memoir, the narrative blends practical descriptions of routines and weather with observations on social life at remote outposts. The book offers a sustained look at how people adapted to the environment and sustained religious and social practice far from urban centres.

Recommended for readers of historical travel and mission memoirs, those interested in northern Canadian history, and anyone curious about resilience and adaptation in extreme environments.
