A series of readings from books of travel and discovery
13-Children of the ColdTaken from ' Kabloona ' by Gontran de Poncins in collaboration with Lewis Galantiere
Reader, Roger Delgado
In 1938 Gontran de Poncins exchanged Paris and civilisation for life on a remote outpost in King William Land in the Central Arctic. He describes his first encounter with the Netsilik Eskimos, a people who ' still lived their primitive life of thousands of years ago, knowing of the white men only an occasional solitary missionary.'
