An unrivalled collection of images of one of the last unsullied wilderness in the world: the vast, uninhabited spaces of north-east Greenland. These beautiful, majestic and poetic landscapes exist in one of the harshest environments on earth. Roy traces the historical background with a brief outline of Greenland's early exploration. He documents the poignant traces of the Inuit tribe - their winter houses, summer tent circle, graves and enigmatic stone mosaics - and the structures left by the European trappers who once piled their dog-sledges in the lonely fjords.
