Have you ever read "On Top of the World?" It's a fictional treatment of Eskimo life, and I'm sure it's well researched. I'm sorry, I couldn't find a link on Amazon. The author was German.

One thing about them: they did not trouble themselves with fine moral distinctions. Their principal ethic was survival. Everything else came after that.
