He wrote about the natives of the far North. We read the James Houston books years ago. At the time I didn't record the books I read but I remember we enjoyed Ghost Fox and Running West. James was the civil administrator of western Baffin Island. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Archibald_Houston
