| Summary | "Forty-two Years Amongst the Indians and Eskimo: Pictures from the Life of the Right Reverend John Horden, First Bishop of Moosonee" by Beatrice Batty is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book documents the life and work of John Horden, who dedicated over four decades to missionary efforts among Indigenous peoples in Canada, particularly in the regions of Hudson's Bay and Moose Factory. It highlights his experiences, challenges, and the cultural exchanges he encountered while serving these communities. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to John Horden's journey, beginning with his departure for Hudson's Bay in 1851. The opening describes the treacherous voyage, detailing the encounters with ice hazards, the isolation of voyages, and his first impressions of the Eskimo and Indigenous peoples he would come to know. We learn of Horden's immediate efforts to learn the local languages, and how his deep faith and perseverance drove him to communicate and connect with the people he aimed to serve spiritually. The author sets the tone for a rich portrait of Horden's missionary endeavors, illustrating not only his professional commitments but also his personal trials and triumphs throughout his remarkable life.
