The first work to bring together information on circumpolar clothing, this volume will remain an indispensable reference source on the clothing of the Canadian Inuit and the clothing from other areas of the circumpolar world--northeastern Siberia, Alaska, and Greenland. In this heavily illustrated book, a splendid, heavily researched text (accompanied by great photographs) examines the styles, materials, and usage of 4000 years of Inuit clothing--from pre-historic times to the present.
