(no dust jacket) [modest wear to extremities, some soiling to edges of text block, spine slightly turned; binding solid, internally quite clean]. (pen and ink drawings, one map) Something of an adventure-novelization of incidents presented by Stefansson in his 1913 book "My Life with the Eskimo." Stefansson, a U.S.-based, Canadian-born anthropologist of Icelandic extraction, eventually became a somewhat controversial figure, but in earlier times (in particular between 1906 and 1912) was responsible for leading important explorations of the Canadian Arctic region, and gained a lot of attention for his observations and writings about the life and culture of the Copper Inuit, the so-called "blond Eskimos".
