Knud Rasmussen is himself partly of Eskimo origin; his childhood was spent in Greenland, and to Greenland he returned again and again, studying, exploring, crossing the desert of the inland ice, making unique collections of material, tangible and otherwise, from all parts of that vast and little-known land, and his achievements on these various expeditions have gained for him much honour and the appreciation of many learned societies.

Download or read book Tales the Eskimos Tell Classic Reprint written by Dorothy Morrison and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales the Eskimos Tell Tales the eskimos tell is a very delight ful group of stories. Usually, once upon a time stories tell us about peoples, things, and habits of thought of a bygone age. But in this book are contained many tales which the Eskimos tell today, and in which many of them believe. Are they true? Well, who knows? Eskimos are hunters and fishermen. Their once upon a time stories, therefore, contain many wonderful ideas about animals and birds, and about prophets and guardian angels. Even yet the Eskimo people tell the story of the angekok who gave them the trout, and they will show you the stripe that runs along its side. This stripe, they will tell you, is the seam Where the folds of the seaweed met when the angekok wrapped it around the poor wet fish. Visitors to the Arctic region tell us that the Eskimos are the happiest people in the world. They laugh as much in a month as we do in a year. We have no desire (the majority of us at any rate) to live within the Arctic Circle. The Eskimos have no desire to live anywhere else, and when they are forced to leave their native land, they are very unhappy until they return. While conditions in our part of the world are constantly changing, many Eskimos of today live, think, and act as their grand fathers, their great grandfathers, and great-great grand fathers did many years ago.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treasury of Eskimo Tales The Central Eskimo live away up north in that great American archipelago which lies be tween Hudson Bay, Baffin Bay, and the Arctic Ocean; an archipelago in which the islands are so large, so numerous, and so irregular in outline that, as one looks at a map of them, he could fancy they were chunks of the continent which had been broken to pieces by some huge iceberg that bumped into it. The land is ice-bound during so much of the year that the inhabitants cannot depend upon getting a living by the cultivation of the soil, and have to subsist almost entirely upon meat which they get from reindeer, seal, bear, whale, and walrus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Eskimo Twins One spring morning, very early, while the moon still shone and every one else in the village was asleep, Menie and Monnie crept out of the dark entrance of their little stone house by the sea. The entrance to their little stone house was long and low like a tunnel. The Twins were short and fat. But even if they were short they could not stand up straight in the tunnel. So they crawled out on all fours. Nip and Tup came with them. Nip and Tup were on all fours, too, but they had run that way all their lives, so they could go much faster than the twins. They got out first. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

I dwelt in their huts, took part in their hunting, and tried, as well as I could, to live their life and learn their lan guage. But one winter, unfortunately, is far too short a time in which to attain a thorough knowledge Of so peculiar a people, its civilisation, and its ways of thought - that would require years Of patient study. Nevertheless, I have tried in this book to record the impressions made upon me by the Eskimo and his polity, and have sought, as far as possible, to support them by quotations from former authors.
