+ESKIMOS+
[Illustration]
The author and artist are indebted to a great many scientists and
other careful observers who have lived among the Eskimos. The
whole record of our sources is too long to give, but here are
some we have found particularly helpful: various writings of Dr.
Franz Boas, Vilhjalmur Stefansson, Rockwell Kent; also the Federal
Writers Project, _A Guide to Alaska_, and books by Edward Moffat
Weyer, Jr., Clarence L. Andrews, Aage Gilberg, Knut Rasmussen,
Fridtjof Nansen and Peter Freuchen. Many articles in the _National
Geographic Magazine_ have been consulted, as have publications of
the United States Natural History Museum. In addition to valuable
pictorial material in most of the foregoing, we have received
assistance in preparing illustrations from the Fish and Wild Life
Service of the United States Department of the Interior.
Without help from all these sources and others, too, this book
would not have been possible. Very special thanks go to Dr. Ruth
Bunzel, anthropologist with the Bureau of Applied Social Research
of Columbia University, for her advice regarding the manuscript.
