内容简介：
While many people dream of abandoning civilization and heading
into the wilderness, few manage to actually do it. One exception
was twenty-four-year-old Elliott Merrick, who in 1929 left his
advertising job in New Jersey and moved to Labrador, one of
Canada’s most remote regions. First published by Scribner’s in
1933, True North tells the captivating story of one of the high
points of Merrick’s years there: a hunting trip he and his wife,
Kay, made with trapper John Michelin in 1930. Covering 300 miles
over a harsh winter, they experienced an unexplored realm of nature
at its most intense and faced numerous challenges. Merrick
accidentally shot himself in the thigh and almost cut off his toe.
Freezing cold and hunger were constant. Nonetheless, the group
found beauty and even magic in the stark landscape. The couple and
the trappers bonded with each other and their environment through
such surprisingly daunting tasks as fabricating sunglasses to avoid
snow blindness and learning to wash underwear without it freezing.
Merrick’s intimate style, rich with narrative detail, brings
readers into a dramatic story of survival and shares the lesson the
Merricks learned: that the greatest satisfaction in life can come
from the simplest things.

About the Author
作者介绍：
Elliott Merrick was born in Montclair, New Jersey, the son of
a New York-commuting executive. After graduating from Phillips
Exeter Academy and Yale University, Merrick took a job as a
reporter with the Passaic Daily News. In 1928 he became assistant
advertising manager for the National Lead Company, his father’s
company, but Merrick seemed to have nature in his blood and, in
1929, he left the business world behind and joined the Grenfell
Mission in Labrador, Canada, as a summer WOP (Worker without Pay).
He loved Labrador and its people and was able to stay in the region
by taking a teaching assignment for the Mission in Northwest River.
It was there that he met and fell in love with the Mission’s
resident nurse, Australian-born Kate (Kay) Austen, whom he married
in 1930. They lived for a brief time in a small cabin near the
current site of the huge Goose Bay Airport. After a number of
adventures in Labrador, the Merricks returned to the United States,
living in New Jersey and Vermont during the middle of the
depression. Elliott Merrick later taught English at the University
of Vermont. He is the author of seven other books, including the
best-selling Northern Nurse.
