About this book
In the early 20th century, as Arctic exploration captivated the world, "Children of the Arctic" by Josephine Diebitsch Peary and Marie Ahnighito Peary offers a unique glimpse into the lives of Indigenous children in this frigid landscape. Through the eyes of AH-NI-GHI´-TO, the daughter of famed explorer Robert Peary, readers encounter rich cultural traditions and the challenges of survival in extreme conditions. This narrative not only highlights the resilience and ingenuity of Arctic communities but also emphasizes the importance of storytelling in preserving heritage. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this book serves as a vital resource for understanding the intersection of exploration and Indigenous experiences in a rapidly changing world.
