1929, The Fisherman's Saint by Sir Wilfred Grenfell

Title: The Fisherman’s Saint (sometimes shown as The Fishermen’s Saint) — an address delivered by Grenfell. Author: Sir Wilfred Thomason Grenfell (1865‑1940)
Occasion: Rectorial Address delivered at University of St Andrews in November 1929.
Publication date: While the address was given 1929, a published version appears by 1930.
Publisher: One listing shows “Hodder & Stoughton, London” for the 1930 edition. Format: One description notes pagination: 56 pages (for a New York edition) with size approx 8.5″ × 5.5″.
Subject: The address treats the theme of St Andrew (patron saint of fishermen) and ties it into the work of fishermen and Grenfell’s missionary/medical mission life among the deep‑sea fishermen of Labrador.

The book is not a standard autobiography or full monograph, but rather a formal address delivered in honor of Grenfell’s appointment as Rector of St Andrews. It reflects on his life, work among fishermen, and draws inspiration from the figure of St Andrew.
It has significance for Newfoundland & Labrador history because Grenfell is a prominent figure in the region (founder of the Grenfell Mission) and his reflections give insight into the worldview of a missionary‑doctor serving remote coastal communities.
For those studying the culture of outport Newfoundland and Labrador, or the history of missionary work, this address provides primary‑source value—both as narrative and as historical artefact of the era (late 1920s/early 1930s).

Because it is an address rather than a full book with chapters, its scope is narrower than a full biography or historical work.
The timeline is interesting: delivered 1929, published 1930; some bibliographic entries use the 1929 date (for the address) and some the 1930 publication date.
For citation purposes, you may want to specify which edition you are using (London vs New York, 56 pages vs other).
Given that Grenfell’s work involved missionary‑medical effort and social reform, his writing often carries the “missionary lens” of the era—so if using the text for historical research, cross‑reference with other sources.
