The Danish geologist and geographer Hinrich Rink (1819-93) amassed decades of experience in exploring Greenland, becoming well versed in the language and customs of the Inuit. The present work is a condensed version of his investigations into indigenous culture, first published in two volumes in 1866 and 1871. Rink revised and translated the work from Danish into English for this 1875 publication, and the text was emended by the Scottish scientist and explorer Robert Brown (1842-95). In the book's first part, Rink describes succinctly the Inuit mode of life in Greenland. The second part, which is significantly longer, recounts the legends and folk tales that Rink had recorded on his travels. The book also includes a number of illustrations drawn and engraved by the Inuit people themselves. This work will appeal to those interested in the history of Inuit culture and nineteenth-century ethnography.

Sagn, eventyr og overleveringer siger meget om et folk, deres historie og kultur. Allerede i 1860 begyndte grønlandsforskeren Hinrich Rink at indsamle og nedskrive de historier og eventyr, som den oprindelige grønlandske befolkning fortalte ham. Fortællingerne er her samlet sammen med en præsentation af inuitterne i Grønland. Bogen viser den ældgamle kulturs mangfoldighed og giver samtidig et indblik i, hvordan man opfattede Grønland og landets oprindelige befolkning i 1800-tallet."Eskimoiske eventyr og sagn" er en genudgivelse af et tidligere værk udgivet med datidens sprogbrug.Hinrich Rink (1819-1893) var en dansk forfatter, geograf, geolog og grønlandsforsker. Han kom til Grønland for første gang i 1848 og fik allerede dengang en stor interesse for den grønlandske befolkning og dens kultur. Hinrich Rink skrev flere bøger om Grønlands geografi, befolkning, undergrund, kultur og sagn. Han var Ridder af Dannebrog og medlem af Videnskabernes Selskab. Udover de mange rejser til Grønland deltog Hinrich Rink i flere ekspeditioner rundt om i verden.
