No Man's River

A colorful memoir details the author's 1947 odyssey with a scientific expedition to the Far North, his encounters with an Eskimo population ravaged by disease brought in by the white man, his efforts to provide assistance to the natives, his life among the Metis trappers and native people eking out a living in a harsh environment, and his witness to the millennia-old migration of the Arctic's caribou herds.
