About this book

Capt. Charles W. Hall wrote this 1877 adventure for young American readers about winter sports in Canada's maritime provinces. A party of English gentlemen hunts sea-fowl on the sea-ice by day and trades stories in the evenings, each showing a local dialect or custom. Later in the season the ice breaks up and carries four hunters into the pack of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, where they must find shelter, food and fire until a sealer rescues them. The book also describes the habits of the seal and life aboard a sealing steamer.
