Product Description: In 1929, Frederica de Laguna accompanied Dr. Therkel Mathiassen, a Danish archaeologist and Arctic explorer, to Greenland to make the first archaeological survey ever undertaken there. The expedition was to take them to unexplored territory where they hoped to discover what had been the culture of the first Eskimo inhabitants. In this book, comprised mostly of a journal and letters to her family, de Laguna tells of her experiences in a Greenland that is now completely gone. Informal, engaging, wonderfully descriptive and informative, the account is full of the excitement and adventure of the opportunity of a lifetime. De Laguna tells of daily life on the island of Inugsuk, setting up camp, the clothes made of sealskin, seal hunting from kayaks, falling asleep to the sound of icebergs knocking against the shore, the hard physical work of digging, and the thrill of discovery of the first significant specimen.

Used Good(1 Copy): Good ( Norton & Co 1977, Hardback. ) In this fascinating work of anthropology, de Laguna gives us a vivid descriptive account of her first visit to Greenland. In doing so, she describes an indigenous way of life that no longer exists. The book itself is in a good overall condition. It is however, a former university library copy. It therefore comes with the normal marks that one would expect. DJ good. Spine and covers all very good indeed. Pages tight, very slightly tanned, but unmarked. We offer a no questions asked returns and refunds policy on book value if returned within thirty days of delivery. ( D: w: )
