Eskimos in Europe: How they got there and what happened to them afterwards.

 by Dr René  Bonnerjea MBE

This is the first book ever to have been written about Eskimos in Europe and their later fate. It is based on first-hand source material and recognised authorities. It traces the origins of Inuit culture, what happened when Europeans first came into contact with them and the fate that befell those that 'visited' Europe from the Viking period to the early 20th Century. 

It may be the first book but it is also the last word on the subject. Exhaustively researched, extensively annotated and closely argued Dr Bonnerjea has produced a work of scholarship that is as exciting as fiction. A noted linguist Dr Bonnerjea knows Eskimo and Aleutian along with a tranche of European languages. This has enabled him to access source material from across the old and new world that has never been brought together before. 

Eskimos in Europe

The book is packed with astonishing revelations about Eskimos who for centuries were regarded with wonder and awe. Being mistaken for (in no particular order)  mermaids, seals, fishes, trolls, Tartars, Chinamen, Lapps, Pygmies and naturally American Indians. The name we know them by, Eskimo, comes from the Algonkian speaking American Indians and means raw flesh eater. The 'Eskimos' simply refer to themselves as Inuit, meaning people or mankind. 

Anyone interested in ethnology, anthropology, sociology or linguistics and the complex evolution of this unique culture will find this book indispensable.
