Book Description

Excerpt from The Ammassalik Eskimo, Vol. 2 of 2: Contributions to the Ethnology of the East Greenland Natives; Second Half-Volume All these journeys have contributed to throw light on my material. Once each fjord had its own style; I recollect special variants of dialects and customs, of belief and behaviour, now much mixed, on the west coast, with European usage, yet of a modern Greenlandish kind. I have seen the past on both coasts, and also what is called modern progress up there. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
