Description:

"A compilation of the traditional knowledge of Inuit elders guided by Inuit from across Nunavut, Uqalurait consists of thousands of quotations organized thematically to cover all aspects of traditional life. The book describes the seasonal rounds of four different cultural groups, illustrating that while Inuit across the land now known as Nunavut had much in common, there was also much to distinguish them from each other, living as they did in many small groups of people, each with its own territory and identity."--BOOK JACKET.
