Synopsis
This remarkable collaboration between an anthropologist and a Nunamiut Eskimo tribesman offers a rare, often poignant glimpse into history, legends, lore material culture and daily life of a traditional society that no longer exists. Simon Paneak's drawings constitute the heart of the book depicting from a memory a way of life that in a very short time had been lost irretrievably.
