Rear Cover Text:

Mother and Child With Fish:  by Lucassie of Ikaluit (one of a series of Eskimo carvings).  Classic, strong, serene, the theme of mother and child is a favorite with Canada's Eskimo artists.  When Lucassie carved this group he had winter thoughts, for the furred parka hood is raised sheltering mother and child from the harsh sea winds.  At Ikaluit there are many fish and seals in the bay.  (Caribou come there, too, sometimes.)  Lucassie's culture as an Eskimo and feeling as an artist give power and tenderness to this simple family scene.
