About This Item
Toronto: McClelland & Stewart Limited, 1975. 237pp. For one memorable year, nurse Dorothy Knight traded her conventional urban existence for a life of isolation in the Arctic. She learned a lot that year, the conditions and courage of Eskimo life, the lack of facilities, the tragedies that are sometimes caused by the white man's interference in a long established way of life. Travelling through the arctic winter to serve scattered Eskimo communities she earned the affectionate name of Lutipik - The Little One Who Cares For Us. Price-intact illustrated dust jacket. A bright copy.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine.
