Arctic Village by Robert Marshall. Hardcover. 397 pages. 1933. Very good condition, some edge tearing on dust jacket. 6" x 8-1/2". The richness of statistical coverage in this book, and Marshall's careful descriptions of the characters he met, provide readers with a window to the world of 1930 and a nearly complete record of the Koyukuk civilization as he saw it. Readers learn what the people of Wiseman thought about sex, religion, politics, and the myriad of ways they found to cope with and enjoy life in a wilderness community.
