Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in conjunction with the world-renowned Glenbow Museum. In the early 1900s, the Inuit of the western Arctic faced desperate times. Dependent on caribou meat and fur for thousands of years, the Native people found that the herds no longer behaved in a predictable way. With the change in climate, hunters were forced to travel several miles east in search of caribou. The Alaskan Reindeer Experiment and the Canadian Reindeer Project sought to mitigate the damage by importing and herding reindeer from Siberia. With the reindeer came Saami, Northern European and Siberian reindeer herders brought to teach the Inuit their successful techniques for survival. By the 1940s, the Pulk family were the only Saami remaining. Here, Lloyd Binder, the grandson of Mikkel Pulk, one of the first chief herders, tells his life story, as well as those of his father, Otto Binder, and mother, Ellen Pulk Binder, as he recounts the history, development and challenges of reindeer herders in Canada throughout the past century. THE GLENBOW MUSEUM is a world-class multidisciplinary institution that includes a permanent art collection, western Canada's largest museum, Canada's largest non-government archives and an unparalleled western Canada reference library. Located in Calgary, it is world-renowned for its innovative programming and exhibitions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This account of a region transformed—and threatened—offers “a timely historical reflection on the important social role of science and scientists.”—Historical Geography In recent years, environmentalists have pointed urgently to the melting Arctic as a leading indicator of climate change. While climate change has unleashed profound transformations in the region, many commentators mislabel them as unprecedented. In reality, the landscapes of the North American Arctic—as well as relations among scientists, Inuit, and federal governments— are products of the region’s colonial past. And even as policy analysts, activists, and scholars clamor about the future of our world’s northern rim, few truly understand its past. In Unfreezing the Arctic, Andrew Stuhl brings a fresh perspective to this defining challenge of our time. Stuhl weaves together a wealth of episodes into a transnational history of the North American Arctic, providing a richer understanding of its social and environmental transformation. Drawing on historical records and extensive ethnographic fieldwork, as well as time spent living in the Northwest Territories, he examines the long-running interplay of scientific exploration, colonial control, the experiences of Inuit residents, and multinational investments in natural resources. With a comprehensive look at a century of scientific activity, he covers the political, economic, environmental, and social history of this transboundary region. “A worthy addition to the recent wave of work on northern history…Bridging the histories of colonialism, resource management, military activity, and Indigenous self-determination, Stuhl focuses on Alaska and northwest Canada, including the Beaufort Sea, Mackenzie Delta, and surrounding region.”—Canadian Journal of History The author intends to donate all royalties from this book to the Alaska Youth for Environmental Action (AYEA) and East Three School's On the Land Program.

Book excerpt: The adrenaline rush felt by the women in this volume of the Sports She Wrote series challenges the notion of Victorian-era women as placid demure damsels. These daring women adventurers' exploits, featured in 46 articles (116,000 words) written from 1871 to 1900, with 75 illustrations, include exhilarating hot-air balloon flights, courageous circus performers, underwater explorations, and death-defying dashes down icy rapids. Eleven articles showcase harrowing feats of audacious and sometimes foolhardy bravery by women who defy norms and push the boundaries of common sense, standing on the ledge of a tall building, swinging from a ringing bell tower, riding a forty-mile plume and ignoring the conventions of being a homemaker in the American West. Fourteen narratives recount the Alaskan Klondike Gold Rush, with vivid tales of survival amid frightening starvation and harsh freezing conditions that will chill you to the bone. Renowned travel writer Elizabeth Taylor's ten in-depth articles detail her expeditions into the Arctic Circle and the cultures she encountered as a lone woman explorer into previously uncharted territories. Three additional articles unveil traditional sports from Italy, Asia and Samoa, offering global perspectives on the wide world of sport. Sports She Wrote is a 31-volume time-capsule of primary documents written by more than 500 women in the 19th century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stefansson's contributions to arctic exploration are immense. He discovered some of the world's last major land masses in the Arctic and his hydrographic soundings outlined, for the first time, the continental shelf from Alaska to Prince Patrick Island and revealed the submarine mountains and valleys beneath the Beaufort Sea. While in the Arctic he lived with the Inuit, learning their habits and language, and kept a detailed record of early Inuit society. However, some of Stefansson's deeds, and the motives behind them, garnered less acclaim. In one instance Stefansson was accused of abandoning ship just before the ship was crushed in the ice, a heinous act for the leader of an expedition. On another occasion, following a disastrous expedition to Wrangel Island during which great numbers of the party died, Stefansson was accused of deliberately misleading members of the expedition and lying about the perils that faced them. The affair caused Canada to become embroiled with the United States and the Soviet Union, and many argued that Stefansson was more concerned with personal fame and financial gain than people's lives. Was Stefansson a prophet or a profiteer, a victim or a villain? Stefansson and the Canadian Arctic reveals the truth about this fascinating personality.
