JENNESS, Diamond, 1922. The Life of the Copper Eskimos. Report of the Canadian Arctic Expedition 1913-18, Volume XII: The Copper Eskimos, 277 pages, 9 photographs, 69 illustrations, 2 maps.

JENNESS, Diamond, 1923. Part B: "Physical Characteristics of the Copper Eskimos," 89 pages, 12 illustrations, tables (published separately, ISBN 0-660-02413-6 / 978-0-660-02413-4).

JENNESS, Diamond, 1924. Eskimo Folklore. Report of the Canadian Arctic Expedition 1913-18, Volume XIII, 282 pages, 229 illustrations. Includes:

The work is divided into two parts: 41 Alaskan stories followed by 52 tales of the Copper Eskimo. The Alaskan stories are more sophisticated and are longer and more detailed; the author attributes this difference to the fact that story-telling is a favourite pastime in Alaska whereas among the Copper Eskimo there appears to be very little interest in the old traditions.
JENNESS, Diamond, 1924. Part B: "Eskimo String Figures," 192 pages, 229 illustrations (published separately, ISBN 0-660-02416-0 / 978-0-660-02416-5).
More than 140 string illustrations from Barrow, Siberia, Mackenzie Delta, and Bernard Harbour are described. The arrangement of illustrations follows the order to their opening movements. A secondary arrangement follows the order of their distribution.
ROBERTS, Helen H., and Diamond Jenness, 1925. Eskimo Songs. Songs of the Copper Eskimos. Report of the Canadian Arctic Expedition 1913-18, Volume XIV, 506 pages, 145 sheets of music, ISBN 0-660-02418-7 / 978-0-660-02418-9.
Songs collected at Bernard Harbour, Dolphin and Union Straits from individuals of nearby parts of the Copper Eskimo area, gathered at Dolphin Strait to trade with the expedition. Hence the collection illustrates fairly adequately the characteristic features of the music and especially the importance of the dance songs.
