  The author reveals that this dictionary is the result of twenty-seven years of missionary work among the Eskimos. Chesterfield, Eskimo Point, Southampton Island, Baker Lake and Churchill were the chief headquarters from which he travelled across the Arctic, meeting the Eskimos and studying their language, ways and manners. Besides his personal knowledge, the Eskimo dictionary embodies pioneer works and manuscript essays of such eminent linguists as Bourquin and Erdmann, of Bishop Turquetil, O.M.I. and Fathers Ducharme and Fafard, O.M.I. In compiling this dictionary, he has had no other aim than to provide the Missionaries and all those who work in the Arctic or care for the social welfare of the Eskimos with a suitable tool for their task. He does hope that this work will prove beneficial to the mutual understanding of two widely different cultures of their country. Moreover, the Inuktitut dialect of Inuit, a member of the Eskimo-Aleut language family, is spoken by over 30,000 native inhabitants of Eastern Canada, including Quebec and Nunavut. Its speakers can communicate easily with the broader Inuit community across Greenland, Canada, and northern Alaska. It has 6,500 total dictionary entries, grammatical appendices include infixes, declensions, and verb conjugations, special sections contain family terms, numbers, and geographic names, romanised for ease of use. This dictionary is ideal with travellers, students, and linguists.
