Higgins (1909)-
Higgins is the Lumber Jacks' "Sky Pilot," and there are 100,000 of them, living without a restraint to brute passion and force. In the midst of them Higgins does his work, passing to and fro among his flock, like Grenfell of Labrador. Norman Duncan saw Higgins at work, stayed at his side, fascinated by what he saw, and he has written a record of human good that will bring a tear to the eye and a quickened beat to the heart.
Dr. Grenfell's Parish (1905)
Doctor Wilfred T. Grenfell is the young Englishman who, for the love of God, practices medicine on the coasts of Newfoundland and Labrador.
Billy Topsail & Company (1910)
Every boy who knows Billy Topsail will welcome this continuation of his adventuresome life in the North. Like its predecessor, the new volume is a stirring story for boys, true to life, among the hardy sons of the sea, clean, pure and stimulating.
Doctor Luke of the Labrador (1904)
"Mr. Duncan is deserving of much praise for this, his first novel.... In his descriptive passages Mr. Duncan is sincere to the smallest detail. His characters are painted in with bold, wide strokes.... Unlike most first novels, 'Doctor Luke' waxes stronger as it progresses."--N. Y. Evening Post.
