	North American Indian Bibiliography
		In accordance with the Eskimo practice of leaving behind people who cannot provide for themselves, this story describes how blind, seven-year-old Allugua is left behind when his family leaves for their annual fishing camp.
		This is an easy-to-read text about Eskimos, in which the author states that "the old hunting life has gone, but they are still the same friendly people today." She then contradicts herself by describing all aspects of traditional life in the present tense: sea life, igloos, travel, whaling, stories and songs, and childhood.
		Her lifetime of service to that community as teacher, public health worker, and, finally, magistrate, give her an insider's perspective on the problems brought by modernity, particularly the application of the U.S. legal system in a traditional society.

	Traditional Whaling
		Traditional Eskimo whaling of the Western Arctic consists of the shore-based pursuit of bowhead whales (and sometimes other species) during the spring migration in shore leads or open water passages as the winter ice begins to break up.
		The basic pattern of traditional Eskimo whaling continues from the distant past into modern times, based on an unbroken lineage of whaling knowledge and skills that were handed down between the generations.
		While today's Eskimo whalers have added technological advances such as bomb darts, aluminum boats (in some villages), Global Positioning Systems and two-way radios to the repertoire of whaling apparatus, the basic pattern of pursuing bowheads from shore camps during the migration season with hand-thrown harpoons, with all the accompanying dangers, has not changed.

	Learning Styles and Culture

		Eskimo parents tended to be highly indulgent toward children and allow them to make their own decisions, even at young ages.
		People traveling with Eskimos remarked on their extraordinary ability to notice and recall visual detail, for example, drawing from memory a map later found to be about as accurate as one made from aerial photographs.

	Public Anthropology
		After observing the social patterns of the Great Whale Eskimo people, the authors argued that the behaviours exhibited in these people as adults were directly related to the child-rearing practices in the community.
		They did not act in an aggressive manner because it was not tolerated in the community and the parents did not allow their children to behave that way.
		Taylor concluded that the Dorset were Eskimo, microlithic tradition was prominent, artifacts show sequential change, and through dendochronology and carbon dating found that the Dorset extended to 1000 B.C. At the risk of furthering the problem, Taylor connects the debating arguments for future analysis of the problem.

		One of the Americans asks what happened to the body of the one the eskimos found frozen to death, but the eskimos don't answer, and the camera cuts to an outside scene of the sled dogs eating bloody meat in the snow, implying that the eskimos fed the dead body to their dogs.
		Some of the eskimo men are very resentful of this, since several of the eskimo men wanted to do away with the Americans right from the start, so they secretly plot to murder the Americans.
		There is one scene of two eskimo women performing an eskimo activity whereby the women lock mouths like in a French kiss, and strongly blow air back and forth into each others' lungs.
