5.0 out of 5 stars An insightful look at life in the far north in days gone by., March 26, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Breaking the Ice: An Arctic Odyssey (Paperback)
Arnold Ruskell has a delightfully humorous way of telling about life in the Arctic as it was when the Inuit were still a nomadic people. Although it is the diary of an Irish, Anglican priest, it is not "religious". It was an enjoyable read.
