[.ca] My Arctic Journal: A Year among Ice-Fields and Eskimos (ISBN 0815411987)

Ruined with anti-Peary intro:
This marvelous Josephine Peary classic of women's exploration is a public domain work that anyone may reprint. This facsimile version has poorly rendered photos and a depressing introduction. Josephine was a fearless pioneer with her own side arm and a Winchester rifle to hunt even 4,000-pound walrus! She tirelessly worked with the Eskimo women learning their language and organizing the sewing of clothing from furs for her husband's expedition. However, this "new" introduction is overly long, overly negative, and reveals an agenda with the events 17 years later when Peary reached the North Pole. Skip the intro! But do enjoy Josephine's story that is intelligent, detailed, and very nicely written.
