The Life and Work of The Rev. E.J. Peck Among The Eskimos
By The Rev. Arthur Lewis
Published by Hodder & Stoughton: London 1905 Second Edition

"Edmund James Peck (1850 - 1924), known in Inuktitut as Uqammaq (one who talks well), was an Anglican missionary in the Canadian North on the Quebec coast of Hudson Bay and on Baffin Island. He founded the first permanent mission on Baffin Island, Nunavut. He developed Inuktitut syllabics, derived from the Cree syllabary and the first substantial English-Inuktitut dictionary."

Minor wear and fading to cover. Prize plate as shown. Some very minor foxing and the odd age mark here and there but a very nice clean copy overall. Please study photos to understand condition. Happy to provide more photos on request.
