Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Eskimo Village Little John is a middle-aged Eskimo; a squarely built, shaggy-headed little man, a clever hunter, and hard enough to be well and happy among all the hard weather and rough raw food of an Eskimo village. John drove my dog-sledge in the winter; he was a famous builder of snow houses, and the most wonderful pathfinder I ever saw. Once upon a time we were camped in a tiny snow house of his building, and with much labour because of the frosty air and the thick gloves I wore I was writing with my pencil in a notebook. John puffed at his pipe and watched me. "What are you writing?" said he. "I am writing about this journey," said I. "Why do you not write about our village?" said John. And so, because of what little John said, I have taken my pen and am writing about our village. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
