| Description: |
An extraordinary ethnographic work presenting Eskimo tribesman Simon Paneak's detailed drawings of his native culture and lifeways at the point when they began their irreversible clash with 20th-century modernism. 100 photos & drawings. |
| Synopsis: |
This remarkable collaboration between an anthropologist and a Nunamiut Eskimo tribesman offers a rare, often poignant glimpse into history, legends, lore material culture and daily life of a traditional society that no longer exists. Simon Paneak's drawings constitute the heart of the book depicting from a memory a way of life that in a very short time had been lost irretrievably. |
