"Journal of a Voyage from Okkak, on the Coast of Labrador, to Ungava Bay, Westward of Cape Chudleigh: Undertaken to Explore the Coast, and Visit the Esquimaux in That Unknown Region" by B. G. Kohlmeister and Georg Kmoch chronicles an extraordinary expedition to the remote and uncharted regions of Labrador and Ungava Bay. Kohlmeister and Kmoch, Moravian missionaries, document their encounters with the Inuit people, their struggles with harsh natural conditions, and their efforts to bring Christianity to these remote lands. Their journal offers valuable insights into the geography, culture, and customs of the Inuit, as well as the challenges faced by early explorers and missionaries. "Journal of a Voyage" is a compelling historical account that provides a unique perspective on the exploration of the Canadian Arctic and the interactions between European missionaries and indigenous peoples.
