"This volume is written to give the people of the United States a better understanding of a very little known people, the Eskimos, of northwestern Alaska, and also to bring the reindeer breeding in that part of the country before them. My knowledge of these subjects was derived from, first, a personal survey of the region from St. Michael to Barrow, made with Superintendent Walter C. Shields of the School and Reindeer Service, in 1917, on the revenue cutter Bear. On this voyage we visited the country of the Chukchee reindeer people of Siberia in three places. Later I spent nearly seven years, from 1923 to 1929, the the School and Reindeer Service. I was in Alaska in 1892, the year the first reindeer were landed at Teller Reindeer Station for distribution to the natives, and became interested in the project at that time. I considered it the greatest and most practicable plan ever put into practice for the well-being of a native people of the United States." This book has 253 pages and is illustrated throughout.
