It is one of the first British descriptions of northern Lapland, treating i.a. the Lapp population, huts, language and poetry, religion, employment and wildlife (incl. reindeer, woodcocks and eiders), where they arrived in the Midsummer: "At twelve o'clock this night we saw the Sun in full beauty.

The Inhabitants of this climate no doubt reap many advantages from this circumstance during the Summer season; but, alas! a long and dreary Winter reverses the scene and involves them in continual darkness."
