Abstract
Pertains to a publication showcasing artistic pieces from a variety of Inuit artists in Canada. The publication provides images of Inuit carvings, as well as other various forms of artistic expression. While the publication seeks to tell the story of the art, it is lacking Inuit voices and thus carries an innate bias.

Notes
Printed from Roger Boulet's website dedicated to Walter J. Phillips
An unpublished manuscript circa 1956 written by Walter J. Phillips
"The manuscript probably dates from 1956 or so judging by some of the references in contains. If that is the case, then it is the last text of any length which Phillips left us. It is untitled, and the title provided is derived from the first words of the text. How the manuscript was to be published is unknown. The structure of the piece is fairly loose, and seems to offer Phillips the opportunity to talk about his love of nature and of sketching outdoors. It also provides a glimpse into how he conducted his landscape paingint classes in Banff." - RHB
