Front Cover


  Eskimo of North Alaska: This is a case study of the modern Eskimo. The Eskimo of the outboard motor, electric lights, fuel-heat, canned goods, clinic and hospital care, Levin and jackets, and the twist. But it is also a study of a people who still hunt walrus, seal, and whales, who wear caribou parkas, and who observe the nalukatak (spring whale festival) each year. The old Eskimo way is in some areas of life intertwined with the new ways borrowed from the tannik (white man) and in other areas it just lies beneath the surface.
