Drums of Diomede: The Transformation of the Alaskan Eskimo is a book written by Arthur Hansin Eide. The book explores the history and culture of the Alaskan Eskimo people, focusing on their transformation from a traditional, nomadic way of life to a more modern, settled lifestyle. Eide delves into the impact of European influence on the Eskimo culture, including the introduction of Christianity and the establishment of trading posts. He also examines the role of the Eskimo in the development of Alaska as a state, including their participation in the gold rush and the construction of the Alaskan Highway. Throughout the book, Eide emphasizes the importance of preserving traditional Eskimo culture and the challenges faced by the community in maintaining their way of life in the face of modernization. Drums of Diomede is a fascinating exploration of the history and culture of one of America's most unique and resilient indigenous communities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
