Hunters in the Barrens : The Naskapi on the Edge of the White Man's World PDF
by Georg Henriksen
Description
This comprehensive study of the Naskapi Indians of Labrador is based on an anthropologist’s life with them between 1966 and 1968, when families still followed the traditional pattern of hunting on the barrens during the winter and returning to their costal settlements in the summer.
Now the Naskapi live in coastal settlements; no longer in possession of their own culture, they have become sedentaries under white tutelage.
This description of two antithetical worlds provides valuable insights for anyone interested in contemporary native rights issues.
