Give Me My Father's Body

£6.99

In this book the story of arctic exploration is told through the eyes of the Eskimos.

Minik and six other Inuit were taken from Greenland to New York in 1897. There they were put on display like circus freaks. His Father soon died of pneumonia and four others quickly followed. Minik was left alone to discover that his father's funeral had been a sham as his bones were in a case in the Museum of Natural History.
