Item description from seller

Paperback. Bertha, a spirited 23-year-old mill worker from Oldham, and with nothing but a heart full of hope and a stack of postcards, Bertha sets sail to Labrador to teach at a mission school, eager to make a difference and learn from the land and its people.Through Bertha's postcards home, readers experience her transformative journey - one filled with laughter, heartbreak and friendship.Witness her thrilling rides on dog sledges, share in the warmth of Christmas beneath a thick quilt of white, and hear the lively echoes of a new language as she forms deep bonds with the children in her care.Yet, as the seasons change, she hears of abuse within the missionary walls and the unsettling gaze of a Hudson's Bay Company man who threatens to disrupt her newfound home. Find yourself immersed in a tale that will echo in your heart long after the last page is turned. A fictionalised story of my grandmother Bertha Lewis's experiences in Labrador teaching at the Moravian missions 1930-1933. Richly illustrated with Bert's own photos and those of her sister This item is printed on demand.
