5.0 out of 5 stars History at its best, March 20, 2006
This review is from: Sinews of Survival: The Living Legacy of Inuit Clothing (Hardcover)
The history of the Inuit has always fascinated me and this book, "Sinews of Survival", lends incredible insight into the form and function of their clothing. It would appear that they had something much more effective than Gore-Tex, among other things. The text and the pictures are excellent and I would urge anyone interested in life above the Arctic Circle to add this book to their library.

4.0 out of 5 stars cold clothing, October 6, 2007

This review is from: Sinews of Survival: The Living Legacy of Inuit Clothing (Hardcover)
being a year round motorcyclist, i've always wanted a pair of inuit mittens. well this book tells what to make them from, when to harvest it, how to align it and a pattern to cut it. what to sew it with. this book provides descriptions of artic clothing, patterns and what to make it from. much of the process informatiom was over my head as i am not a seamster, but it's a very interesting book just the same.
