description: THESE stories were collected in various parts of Greenland taken down from the lips of the Eskimo story-tellers themselves by Knud Rasmussen the Danish explorer. No man is better qualified to tell the story of Greenland or the stories of its people. Knud Rasmussen is himself partly of Eskimo origin; his childhood was spent in Greenland and to Greenland he returned again and again studying exploring crossing the desert of the inland ice making unique collections of material tangible and otherwise from all parts of that vast and little-known land and his achievements on these various expeditions have gained for him much honour and the appreciation of many learned societies.
