Résumé du livre
Relying heavily on ships' logbooks and private journals, the only substantial firsthand records of events on the whaling ground, this monograph examines whaling operations, trade, employment, the introduction of guns and whaleboats, and their impact upon Eskimo numbers, distribution, economy, and health.
