About this Item
Steffanson's experiences as he lived among the Mackenzie Eskimos in 1908, finding them cheerful, self-reliant and admirable companions. "They are people among whom you might possibly have enemies and among whom you were certain to make friends; people very much like you and me, but with the social virtues developed rather more highly than they have been among our own race. In a difficult struggle for existence under hard natural conditions they have acquired the ability to live together in peace and good will." Clean, solid, very good copy with a touch of rubbing at extremities. Paper beginning to split on front hinge but it is still strong enough. No foxing. Former owner's name in pencil on front fly-leaf. Thick 8vo. 9-1/4" x 6-1/2". 537 pp. including extensive index. Blue cloth stamped in gold. Deckled fore-edge.Top edge gilt. Decorated endpapers. Seller Inventory # 470
