- "'The Land of Moosoneek' is no ordinary history. It was written to commemorate the Centennial of the Diocese of Moosonee celebrated in 1972, but it contains much more than the comings and goings of the Church. It is one of the few books written about Northern Ontario and Quebec, starting from the time of the first incursions of the white man into this land of promise." -- Foreword, p. [ix].
