Summary: | This book is a collection of articles previously published in the New York Evening Post written while Deming traveled through England, North America, and the West Indies.

Newfoundland is the subject of several articles on pp. 75-113, and is described in great detail by the author. He also writes about cod and it's importance to the island, the seal fishery, and the process of sending/receiving telegraphs at the cable station at Heart's Content.
