- catalog abstract ""The Yellowknife courthouse displays a collection of fourteen Inuit carvings representing landmark cases in the legal history of the Northwest Territories. The cases, which came to trial before the NWT Supreme Court between 1955 and 1970, and the carvings that represent them illuminate a pivotal period of social change when the Inuit camp system was eroding and age-old practices and traditional mores were being called into question. Dorothy Harley Eber tells the stories behind the carvings and provides fascinating insight into the unusual situations and special problems that developed as the Inuit came in contact with Canada's justice system."--Jacket.".
