Question
This author hypothesized that the Albans, descendants of Neolithic Britons who were pushed northward by the Celts, used hide boats to travel from Orkney to North America centuries before the Vikings in his extremely loopy book The Farfarers. For 10 points each:
[10h] Name this environmentalist author of Never Cry Wolf, who chronicled an impoverished group of caribou-hunting Inuit called the Ihalmiut in his first book, People of the Deer.
ANSWER: Farley (McGill) Mowat (There was no room for this in the question, but you better believe he's the namesake of Farley the dog in For Better or For Worse.)
[10m] In 1953, Mowat was falsely accused of having made up the Ihalmiut by Jean Lesage. Lesage’s 1960 election as premier marked the start of this historical period of secularization and welfare state formation.
ANSWER: Quiet Revolution [or Révolution tranquille]
[10e] Mowat's other books include a 1987 biography, published in the US as Woman of the Mists, of this gorilla researcher who was murdered in Rwanda in 1985.
ANSWER: Dian Fossey
