Publisher's Synopsis

""Life With The Esquimaux V2"" is a captivating memoir written by Captain Charles Francis Hall, detailing his experiences during his two-year stay with the Inuit people, also known as the Esquimaux, in the Arctic region. The book is a continuation of his first volume, which chronicled his initial voyage to the Arctic in 1860. In this second volume, Hall provides a detailed account of his interactions with the Inuit people and their way of life. He describes their hunting techniques, their customs and traditions, and their unique relationship with the harsh Arctic environment. He also documents his own struggles with the extreme weather conditions and the challenges of living in such a remote and isolated location. Throughout the book, Hall provides a firsthand perspective on the Inuit culture, their beliefs, and their daily lives. He also shares his observations on the impact of European contact on the Inuit people and their way of life. ""Life With The Esquimaux V2"" is a fascinating and insightful read for anyone interested in Arctic exploration, Inuit culture, or the history of European contact with indigenous peoples. Hall's vivid descriptions and personal anecdotes make this book a valuable resource for scholars, historians, and general readers alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
