Last Kings of Thule

Jean Malaurie

History

Cape, Jonathan

After spending 1950-51 with an isolated group of Eskimos in northern Greenland, sharing their life on the very edge of survival, Jean Malaurie returned with his companions to Thule village to find a U.S. airbase under construction: 'Men who lived by the harpoon found themselves in the atomic age.' When Malaurie traveled back to the Arctic in 1972, the airbase had irreversably transformed the Eskimo (Inuit) culture.
