To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At various other points around this por- tion of the gallery canoes are hung, showing all differences of type, from the ordinary one to one of walrus hide stretched on a wooden frame, and presenting a curious similarity to a structure of thin bone. Rising from the highest central point of the gallery is a representation of a ship's top-mast, with a lookout holding a spy- glass and standing in the rigging. This is to represent the manner of watching for whales in the whale fisheries of the north.... To the right of this figure a bowsprit projects from the gallery, and at its extreme end stands a sailor ready to cast a harpoon. To the left, the bow of a whale boat seems starting from the gallery, another dummy, dressed as a harpooner, aiming his lance for a death thrust. The first thing one meets in the fisheries exhibit is a representa- tion of contrast of a kind familiar to all fishermen. First there is a fancifully equipped angler, armed with an elegant split bamboo rod, a reel, a landing net, a fly book, a creel, and all other modern appli- ances for expert fishing.
