Description

The Inuksuk Book offers a fresh glimpse into the culture, customs, and ingenuity of the Inuit by examining the symbolic information revealed in the mysterious inuksuk.
Found throughout the Far North, inuksuit are stone structures that act in the place of human beings to communicate knowledge essential for Arctic survival.
Through the collective wisdom of Inuit elders and noted experts, archival photography, and the author’s own exquisite silk paintings, the reader is introduced to the ten major types of structures and is shown how they have provided travelers with information on location, danger spots, food storage, hallowed land, and hunting grounds.
