About This Item
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.
