This lecture summarizes the history of the Caribou Eskimo (an Eskimo of the Barren Grounds of northern Canada). This group were the last native people in North America to establish contact with Europeans. Also, you will learn how North America was formed, using the Snowbird Tectonic Zone as an example.
Jeff Chiarenzelli is a geologist and environmental scientist who has spent over 25 years studying the geology of the Canadian Shield. He also is intrigued by the Adirondack Region.
NOTE: Three recommended books: People of the Deer, The Desperate People, and Never Cry Wolf - all by Farley Mowat.
