When the Whalers Were Up North. Inuit Memories from the Eastern Arctic

- New
- Hardcover
McGill-Queen's University Press (McGill-Queen's Native and Northen Series), 1989 Maps on endpapers. Profusely illustrated with color and b.& w. drawings and photos. « The author tells a story drawn from oral memories, a story which will soon disappear with the last Inuit generation to have seen the whalers. Illuminated by a remarkable collection of drawings, photographs, and illustrations, many in full colour, tales are told of when the whalers first appeared on the north-east coast of Baffin Island, how they set up land stations in the whale-rich waters of Cumberland Sound, and how they eventually pushed on into Hudson Bay. During this time the Inuit not only fed and clothed the whalers, they hunted with them, adding to the whalers' wealth. Our understanding of change in Inuit life is often linked to the fur traders, who arrived in the North fifty years after the arrival of the whalers. In truth it is the Inuit's close contact with the foreign world of the whalers which marked the beginning of a change in previously undisturbed Inuit culture and traditions.». Hardcover. New/New.

Description:
Montreal, QC: McGill-Queen's University Press, 1989. Hardcover. Good/Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; humidity damage to inside edge; very light wear to upper edge of dust jacket; otherwise very minimal wear; During the 19th and early 20th centuries, whaling vessels from Britain and America plied their trade in great numbers in the waters off the Eastern Arctic of North America. The heyday of whaling has, until now, been documented solely from the perspective of the whalers, never from the viewpoint of the Inuit, whose lives were touched - and sometimes destroyed - by their presence. Here, finally, is a rich view from the perspective of the Inuit, who welcomed the whalers and served on their crews.
