THE FIRST BOOK OF ESKIMOS by Benjamin Brewster

THE FIRST BOOK OF ESKIMOS

By

Pub Date: May 8th, 1952
Publisher: Franklin Watts

Anthropologically healthy, this is a very good introduction to Eskimo culture that treats The People, as they call themselves, in relation to their own values and makes clear the problems that result from European influences. Descriptions of life in seasonal and daily aspects are vivid and personalized so that Baffin Eskimos and MacKenzie Eskimos become very real.
