Summary "With the Harmony to Labrador" by Benjamin La Trobe is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around La Trobe’s visit to the Moravian mission stations located on the northeast coast of Labrador, detailing his experiences and observations about the region and its inhabitants, particularly the Eskimo population. This account serves both as a travel memoir and a documentary of the missionary work conducted in this remote area. At the start of this work, the author reflects on his journey aboard the ship "Harmony," which safely brought him to Hopedale, the southernmost mission station. He recounts the challenges of navigating through fog and ice, contrasting the stark beauty of summer with the harsh realities of the Labrador winter. La Trobe describes the mission houses and the surrounding Eskimo dwellings, highlighting the daily lives of the inhabitants and the ongoing efforts of the missionaries to foster a spiritual community. His observations are filled with a sense of respect for the resilience and faith of the local people, as well as the natural hardships they face in such a desolate landscape.
