Als Eskimo unter den Eskimos. Eine Schilderung der Erlebnisse der Schwatka'schen Franklin-Aufsuchungs-Expedition in den Jahren 1878-80. Von Heinrich W. Kluschak, Zeichner und Geometer der Expedition.
Mit 3 Karten, 12 Vollbildern und zahlreichen in den Text gedruckten Illustrationen nach den Skizzen des Verfassers.
Gott eintak í ágætu bandi. Kort og myndir allar heilar og góðar.
With this 1881 publication, Heinrich Klutschak (1847-90), a German native of Prague, produced one of the first comprehensive accounts of Inuit life. In the years 1878-80 the artist and writer was part of an expedition, led by the American soldier Frederick Schwatka, which travelled in the Canadian Arctic. This undertaking was but one of many that sought to discover what had happened during the last expedition of the British explorer Sir John Franklin in the 1840s. As the title of the work indicates, Klutschak and his fellow expedition members attempted to live as fully as possible in the manner of the Inuit and in close proximity to them. Although Klutschak dwells on the antipathy between some of the Inuit bands, the general tone of the book is one of respect for their survival skills and way of life.
