The book is a memoir of the author’s experiences while living in Canada and Newfoundland.

Dashwood writes about his travels through the wilderness, his encounters with Indigenous peoples, his experiences hunting and fishing, and his interactions with other settlers. Throughout the book, he reflects on the beauty and majesty of the Canadian wilderness, as well as the challenges and hardships that come with living in such a remote and rugged environment.Dashwood’s writing style is descriptive and vivid, and he paints a vivid picture of life in Canada and Newfoundland during the late 19th century. He also provides insights into the culture and customs of the Indigenous peoples he encountered, and his observations are both respectful and insightful.Overall, ''Chiploquorgan: Or Life By The Camp Fire In Dominion Of Canada And Newfoundland'' is a fascinating and engaging memoir that offers a unique perspective on life in Canada and Newfoundland during the 19th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Canadian history, wilderness exploration, or Indigenous cultures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
