The Logbook of Monroe Grey Barnard
Monroe Barnard came aboard the Schooner Effie M. Morrissey in 1927 for a voyage into the far north into Fury and Hecla Straits for the American Geographical Society, Museum of the American Indian and the Heye Foundation. This was the second trip funded by Publisher George Palmer Putnam and written about in David Putnam's book David Goes to Baffin Land. Click here ( http://www.ernestina.org/history/Mgblog1927.html ) to read about Monroe's exploits aboard the Morrissey as transcribed from his hand written journal by his son George Barnard II. If you are curious about some Innuit (Eskimo) words you can go to Monroe's dictionary pages in his log. You can find David's book in your local library to read about the trip from his perspective..
