Om Second Helping

The author's travels take us again back to Newfoundland Labrador and Nunavut after an absence of almost fifty years where he critically surveys the decaying remains of European influences of Moravian missionaries in that area during their two hundred-year stay. The remnants of the hundred-year-long period of Basques whaling in southern Labrador are explored as are the few remnants of the Norse settlement at L'Anse aux meadows in Northern Newfoundland 1000 CE. Why was it abandoned after a stay of only a decade? How is global warming affecting the lives of Inuit and wildlife in Nunavut today? What is happening in the world's oceans and its inhabitants?
