Publisher's Synopsis
Eskimo Life is a book written by Norwegian explorer Fridtjof Nansen, first published in 1894. The book is a detailed account of Nansen's experiences living among the Inuit people during his expedition to Greenland in 1888-1889. Nansen describes the daily life, customs, and traditions of the Inuit people, including their hunting practices, clothing, food, and social organization. He also discusses the challenges of living in the extreme Arctic environment, including the harsh weather conditions and the dangers of hunting and traveling on the ice. The book provides a fascinating insight into the culture and way of life of the Inuit people, as well as a valuable historical record of Nansen's pioneering exploration of the Arctic region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
