Excerpt from The Netsilik Eskimos: Social Life and Spiritual Culture It is a matter of course that I owe gratitude to my predecessors in these regions, specially Roald Amundsen and Godfred Hansen. As in the foregoing Volume VII I have elected to allow the various experiences I had on my journeys to form a part of_the ethnographical descriptions.
