Of all the clashes of white man and Indian, I'd never been exposed to or imagined this scenario, and was captivated by the descriptions of life, death and philosophy in the frozen north. This history reads like a mystery but sadly, the good intentions of one culture can cause terrible repercussions to another. Once again, innocent encounters turn into pernicious disasters. I couldnt put it down and want to know more about these fascinating Inuit/Eskimos. Fortunately, I realized I have "The Ice Master," which covers more ground on one of the more interesting and sensitive Europeans to intrude on a people who thought they were alone.
