By Canoe and Dog Train

This is the story of the Youngs—missionaries to the Indians of northern Canada. Reverend Young was the pastor of a thriving church and newly married when he was given an unexpected commission. The author tells of his sufferings, toils, and triumphs: of being lost in freezing blizzards, fishing in picturesque lakes, learning Indian customs—some humorous, others abominable—suffering the loss of a child, the triumph of winning souls, and watching God transform their lives. One hangs onto every word like children at hearthstones listening to tales of adventure.
