Focusing on the late 19th-century Inuit communities of eastern Greenland, this diary by Johannes Hansen, a Greenlandic missionary, offers a unique perspective on their customs and practices. Documented during Captain Gustav Holm's expedition, the sketches reveal the complexities of Greenlandic culture amidst Danish colonization. Published in Atuagagdliutit, Greenland's first newspaper, Hansen's compassionate observations provide rare insights into the evolution of native life during a transformative period in history.
