Molasses Bread & Tea
John Christopher
John P Christopher offers a textural account of life and work among the recently resettled Inuit people of Whale Cove, Hudson Bay 1962, where he was studying beluga whale population dynamics. He also gives a carefully balanced tale of life aboard a Norwegian/Canadian seal hunter the MV Theron, as it pursues its grim work among the ice floes off Labrador and Newfoundland. The following are some of the comments that its release brought from magazine editors and well known authors: "I enjoyed it and am flattered that you should send it to me for Publication." Alexander Goldsmith Editor, Geographical Magazine, (official magazine of the Royal Geographical Society London UK). And: "John Christopher reads (and sings) from his arctic memoir Molasses Bread and Tea." "Ten Great Things To Do In Toronto" The North Toronto Post Magazine (Toronto On Canada) I am just back from Peru. Thanks for writing. In just a few lines from Molasses Bread and Tea you painted a heartbreaking image that obviously still feels vivid for you. Thanks for sharing, though it's a disturbing little window on a wider world of inflicted pain. Carl Carl Safina. Marine Ecologist and critically acclaimed best- selling author. (Song for the Blue Ocean, Beyond Words and Voyage of the Turtle). And: Many thanks for the wonderful stories in Molasses Bread and Tea from your time aboard the M V Theron, which I found most interesting. Stephen Stephen Haddelsey. (Shackleton's Dream: Fuchs, Hillary and the Crossing of Antarctica).
