About This Item
St. John's, NL: DRC Publishing, 2003. Paperback. Fine. As New condition; George Carwright made his first visit to Labrador in March 1770, after entering into partnership with a Lieutenant Lucas, and Perkins and Coghlan of Bristol, to carry on business in Labradore under the name of Perkins, Coghlan, Cartwright and Lucas. During his time in Labradore, he wrote a three volume diary: Journal of Transactions and Events During a Residency of Nearly Sixteen Years on the Coast of Labrador, which was published in 1792. English poet Samuel Coleridge applauded what he called its "strange simplicity.
