About This Book
The report narrates an overland search through Newfoundland's interior to locate and document the Indigenous people locally called the Red Indians, combining field observations of routes, campsites, and material remains with notes on the island's geography and winter travel. The account describes traces of occupation such as canoe rests, bark-lined storage pits, winter and summer wigwams, a steam-bath practice, and evidence of food use and tool-making, comments on encounters or lack of information from settler families, and reflects on logistical difficulties, natural conditions, and recommendations for future investigation.
