Sobre este artículo
Montreal: McGill-Queen's University Press, 2001. First edition. Hardcover, 343 pages. Strongly influenced by the arts and crafts movement, the New England artist Jessie Luther was recruited by Wilfred Grenfell to teach weaving to the women at St. Anthony, whose hooked mats went on to become famous for their strong designs and meticulous craftsmanship. An annotated edition of a travel journal that Luther wrote from 1906 to 1910, 'Jessie Luther at the Grenfell Mission' describes the local customs of St. Anthony, provides an unusually intimate account of Wilfred Grenfell, and brings to life the Newfoundlanders with whom he worked. "I loved reading this book and am totally in awe of Jessie Luther" - Mary Pratt. "I really enjoyed this book" - Jane Jacobs. "A wonderful read" - Stephen Loring, Arctic Studies Center, NMNH - Anthropology, Smithsonian Institution. Includes maps, endnotes, bibliography and index.
