I finally found a Sami book to read on kindle, it’s pretty much the only one:
“With the Lapps in the High Mountains is an entrancing true account, a classic of travel literature, and a work that deserves wider recognition as an early contribution to ethnographic writing.
“Published in 1913 and available here in its first English translation, it is the narrative of Emilie Demant Hatt’s nine-month stay in the tent of a Sami family in northern Sweden in 1907–8 and her participation in a dramatic reindeer migration over snow-packed mountains to Norway with another Sami community in 1908.”
Remember my ‘half-Sami-girl’, she told me that very few groups still live in the traditional way but they are trying to revive the language and skills of the migratory people.
