About This Book

This story opens in the Arctic Circle as young Red Rooney embarks on a voyage from Greenland. His adventures begin when his boat is crushed by ice and sinks, and he is left on the ice to perish until an Eskimo named Okiok finds him. Living with the Eskimos, Red experiences first-hand the spiritual battle between the Angekok (false priest) and Christian missionaries. Written to show life among the Greenland and Arctic Eskimos, Ballantyne gives readers a glimpse into the pagan lifestyle of these natives and their ingenuity and life at sea, while also showing the effects of the Gospel when missionaries bring the good news of Jesus, transforming life and culture.
