"(F)eatures twenty-three pieces by this master sculptor, widely celebrated for his ability to tell us deep histories in new ways. His massive, intricately carved narratives speak not only of Inuit prehistory and settlement but of Viking legends and forays into the New World. The results are astounding, not just in terms of their great beauty and craftsmanship, but also the dialogues they present about ancient and living northern cultures." from the Preface.
