Summary: "Newfoundland to Cochin China" by Ethel Gwendoline Vincent is a travel narrative written in the late 19th century. The book recounts the author's journeys through various regions, primarily Canada, Japan, and China, capturing the landscapes, cultures, and commerce of each locale. The work likely aims to provide impressions and insights from the author's travels, enriching the reader's understanding of these diverse places. At the start of the narrative, the author awakens to the sight of Newfoundland's coastal landscape, describing the arrival of the ship "Nova Scotian" at St. John's. The opening details her initial observations of the stark yet beautiful scenery, including the gray cliffs and the surrounding ocean. She introduces Newfoundland's significance as England's Premier Colony, highlighting both its harsh climate and natural beauty. Vincent's exploration continues as she engages with local life, from the occupants of quaint fishing villages to the influences of environmental factors such as fog and fishing industries, setting the stage for her broader travel experiences across Canada and beyond.
