Encounters on the Passage
Inuit Meet the Explorers
by Dorothy Harley Eber
Eber presents stories told to her by present-day Inuit that have been passed down from their ancestors of the first encounters with European explorers and the expeditions of Sir Edward Parry, Sir John Ross, Sir John Franklin, and Roald Amundsen. In the case of the disastrous Franklin expedition, new information opens up another fascinating chapter on the tragedy.
