Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; This book starts with an overview of the Beothuk's position in Newfoundland prehistory, followed by an outline of their distribution and population size at the time of first contact with Europeans, of their social organization, subsistence strategies and burial practices. With this information as a basis, attention is focused on their history. Cultural information on such matters as the Beothuk's appearance and beliefs are described in the context of reports written by contemporary observers. The intent of presenting cultural data in this sequence is to indicate how little the people in fishing communities as well as in government knew about the traditions of their native neighbours or subjects. This lack of understanding promoted misperceptions and disregard for the Beothuk. The deterioration of relations as well as other factors that contributed to the eventual demise of the Beothuk are discussed as they emerge from the records. Seller Inventory # 008737
