Description
This collection of stories offers a unique glimpse into the culture and traditions of Greenland's indigenous people. Taken from the lips of Eskimo storytellers themselves, these tales were recorded by Danish explorer Knud Rasmussen during his travels.
With no man better qualified to tell the story of Greenland than its own native son, this book provides a fascinating insight into the lives and customs of the country's original inhabitants. The stories within are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the region.
