Uqalurait - An Oral History of Nunavut. NATIVE INUIT. Hardcover with
dustjacket, great condition. Uqalurait, pointed snowdrifts formed by Arctic
blizzards, would tell us which direction to go in, says elder Mariano
Aupilarjuk. This oral history, guided by the traditional knowledge of Inuit
elders from across Nunavut, also follows the uqalurait. Thousands of quotes
from over three hundred Inuit elders about their culture and customs cover all
aspects of traditional life, from raising children to hunting, the land, and
architecture, to belief systems, cosmology, and the Inuit's remarkable ability
to make do with what they had. Given the recent creation of Nunavut and current
attention to the Arctic due to climate change, Uqalurait is a timely source of
insight from a people whose values of sharing and respect for the environment
have helped them to live for centuries at the northern limit of the inhabitable
world.

Scarce first edition of The Letters of Mayo Lind published in 1919. Great
condition considering the age.
Frank Lind was thirty-five years of age in 1914 when The Great War broke out.
Even if conscription had been in place, he would have been qualified for an age
exemption. However, like many Newfoundlanders of his generation, he quickly
volunteered and joined the First Newfoundland Regiment (later to become the
Royal Newfoundland Regiment).

The Jack Ford Story NEWFOUNDLAND POW IN NAGASAKI (book). In 1942, Jack Ford was
captured in Malaya by Japanese troops and somehow survived three years of
hellish treatment as a slave labourer in Japan, only to narrowly escape death
from the American atomic bomb attack on Nagasaki. His remarkable saga is well
told by Jack Fitzgerald, a Newfoundland journalist and radio broadcaster.
When World War II began, Ford was a 21-year-old mechanic for the Newfoundland
Railway, who in those pre-Confederation days felt dual loyalty to both Britain
and Newfoundland, so he eagerly volunteered for service with the Royal Air
Force. He was in far-off Singapore when the place was overwhelmed by Japanese
forces in 1941. Surrender of the British garrison pitched more than 95,000
prisoners of war into a three-year-long nightmare of relentlessly cruel
treatment by Japanese soldiers who inflicted beatings, torture, and starvation
amid a regimen of exhausting physical labour. Often told in Fords own words,
Fitzgerald relates Fords dreadful existence in a matter-of-fact style that
somehow makes his experiences all the more harrowing.
For most of this period, Ford was kept in a prison camp, allowed out each day
only to toil in a naval shipyard, where he and his fellow prisoners had no
knowledge of how the war was progressing. When the A-bomb exploded over
Nagasaki on August 9, 1945, all the POWs witnessed a bright flash of light, a
distant thunder of noise, and a billowing mushroom cloud. It was the signal for
their joyous liberation soon afterwards.
