Synopsis
In the winter of 1913, high in the Canadian Arctic, two Catholic priests set out on a dangerous mission to reach a group of Eskimos and convert them. Upon reaching their destination, the priests were murdered. Over the next three years, one of the Arctic#146;s most tragic stories became one of North America#146;s strangest and most memorable police investigations and trials. A near-perfect parable of late colonialism, as well as a rich exploration of the differences between European Christianity and Eskimo mysticism, Bloody Falls of the Coppermine possesses the intensity of true crime and the romance of wilderness adventure., In the winter of 1913, high in the Canadian Arctic, two Catholic priests set out on a dangerous mission to reach a group of Eskimos and convert them.

    Great seller. Book arrived within a reasonable time frame and was packaged in a protective wrapping. The condition of the book was "Very Good," as was described and includes a "Very Good" dust jacket with award stickers. Great value, extremely fair price.
