Hardcover. Zustand: As New. First Edition. Fine-looking, structurally sound hardcover, little discernible wear to the glossy pictorial cloth over boards, bright interior, unmarked, clean. From the publisher's blurb, "Fine-looking, structurally sound hardcover, little discernible wear to the glossy pictorial cloth over boards, bright interior, unmarked. Einar Lund Jensen, Kristine Raahauge and Hans Christian Gullov have edited a fine survey of Cape Farewell featuring East Greenlandic immigrants and the German Moravian Mission in 19th-century contacts. From the publisher's blurb, "Cultural Encounters at Cape Farewell offers a comprehensive account of the cultural history of the Cape Farewell area in the 19th century. The dominating factor in this history was the immigration of people to the area from Southeast Greenland. There are no written sources originating from these immigrants, as they could neither read nor write, so the descriptions presented of the immigration are primarily based on material from the Danish colonial authorities and the German Moravian mission. Although one-sided and reflecting a European view and conception of the world, the sources contain valuable information, which pieced together, give a clear picture of the East Greenlandic immigration to the Cape Farewell area at the time, and of the society which arose in the wake of this immigration. The volume includes accounts of the immigrants themselves which have been passed down from generation to generation - accounts or tales of life in Southeast Greenland which have been told, retold and used in various historical contexts, and still make up an important part of the local historical tradition, just as they contribute to giving the population of the southernmost part of Greenland their own identity in the face of rapid changes brought about by colonization. The present book, drawing on informative archival material and presenting a rich volume of illustrations, gives for the first time a collected synthesis of the history of the population in the Cape Farewell area in the 19th century." Contributions by the three editors and H.C. Gullov, E.L. Jensen, E.L. Jensen, E.L. Jensen, K. Raahauge and E.L. Jensen, K. Raahauge and H.C. Gullov.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Creating fire is easy, yet understanding and learning to live with this friend and foe has never been easy; stopping fire is a dangerous-and often deadly-pursuit. Drawing on his experiences as an environmental historian, firefighter and life safety educator, author Einar Jensen presents an eye-opening look at fire and our history of dealing with it, then gives us the tools for being responsible and prepared-as parents and teachers, as communities and fire service professionals, and as homeowners in the wildland urban interface. 'If we don't change our understanding of fire, our rules of engagement, or our cultural values, we should expect more tragedies and be willing to pay for them in ever-increasing volumes of dollars, blood, sweat and tears. I'm committed to preventing these tragedies, and I hope to bring more members into my prevention cadre.' - Einar Jensen. …
