SUMMARY
"For anyone interested in the 'modernization' of aboriginal peoples anywhere, this work is an essential source."--W. H. Oswalt, University of California, Los Angeles "For audiences who are unfamiliar with Eskimos (or another Native American group) the material provides a vivid account of life in Arctic coastal villages. . . . For readers whose image of the Eskimo world is the snow house, skin clothing, and dog teams . . . the descriptions of village life will go a long way in dispelling misconceptions fostered by a romantic idealism about 'The Untouched Primitive.'"--Douglas D. Anderson, Brown UniversityJorgensen, Joseph G. is the author of 'Oil Age Eskimos', published 1990 under ISBN 9780520068438 and ISBN 0520068432.
