Oowikapun Reverend Egerton Ryerson Young

Oowikapun: How the Gospel Reached the Nelson River Indians is a classic Christian history text by Reverend Egerton Ryerson Young. That Oowikapun was unhappy, strangely so, was evident to all in the Indian village. New thoughts deeply affecting him had in some way or other entered into his mind, and he could not but show that they were producing a great change in him. The simple, quiet, monotonous life of the young Indian hunter was curiously broken in upon, and he could never be the same again. There had come a decided awakening; the circle of his vision had suddenly enlarged, and he had become aware of the fact that he was something more than he imagined.
