The Fall Of Torngak

The Fall of Torngak is a historical book written by J.W. Davey in 1905. It tells the story of the Moravian Mission on the Coast of Labrador and the events that led to its downfall. The Moravian Mission was established in the mid-18th century with the aim of converting the Inuit people to Christianity. The book explores the relationship between the missionaries and the Inuit people, as well as the challenges they faced in their attempts to convert them. The title of the book refers to the Inuit deity Torngak, who was worshipped by the Inuit people before the arrival of the missionaries. The book describes how the missionaries attempted to replace the traditional beliefs of the Inuit people with Christianity, and how this led to conflict and ultimately the downfall of the mission. The Fall of Torngak is a detailed and well-researched account of the Moravian Mission on the Coast of Labrador. It provides insight into the history of the region and the cultural clashes that occurred during the period of European colonization. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Moravian Mission, the Inuit people, or the history of Labrador.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
