I recognized the seal-skin bag full of birds in BoF&HN as coming from a more
complete first-hand description by Greenlander-by-marriage Peter Freuchen in
his *Book of The Eskimo* which is a great read about the scene up there in
the first half of the 20th. Cent. It actually made me hungry to try the
dish. (it's a partee thang to get you thru the (loooong) night)
