Inuksuit : Silent Messengers of the Arctic [first edition]

Inuksuit are deliberately stones and piles of stones, deliberately placed, and found throughout the circumpolar world. In his color photographs, Hallendy records some of these constructions, which have fascinated him during his 40 years of travels throughout the Arctic. His text describes the lasting friendships he developed with a number of Inuit elders, the nuances and complexities of inuksuit communication forms, and the particulars of the sites he photographed. This is a paperbound edition of a 1990 book. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
