Summary

Inuit History and Culture


There is far more to the world of the Inuits than cold temperatures and snow. Readers discover the incredible ways these people have learned to thrive in their harsh climate. Readers explore Inuit history from the first Arctic dwellers to the present. The cultural struggle faced by the Inuits is presented as they work to survive in the modern world while still trying to preserve the traditions of their past. The talents of the Inuit people are on full display in this book, from hunters to artists and professional hockey players. Detailed photographs take readers on a journey to the frigid but beautiful landscape the Inuits call home.
