Description:

Nearly 35,000 books and treatises about Greenland have been published, and yet the reader of this book will discover that one more was not one too many. In a fresh and lively text, editor-in-chief Erik Erngaard, who has been head of Greenland Radio's news service and editor of the Greenland Post, describes the long, eventful history of the Greenlanders - from Erik the Red right up to the very latest times.

And with the text comes a complete opulence of images, both previously unnoticed and unknown museum treasures and modern color photographs, taken especially for the purpose.

Nothing has been spared to make this Greenland book something completely unique - it should have every potential to become a classic in Greenlandic literature.
