Editing Diamond Jenness (section)

==Retirement years (1948–1969)==
During his retirement, Jenness continued to travel, research, and publish. (See ''Through Darkening Spectacles'', Table 2, p.&nbsp;364 for a complete table of locations visited.) He also taught courses at universities, such as the University of British Columbia (1951) and McGill (1955), on arctic ethnology and archaeology.<ref>Jenness, Diamond and Stuart E. Jenness, 2008.

From 1949 until his death in 1969, Jenness published more than two dozen writings, including the monographs: ''The Corn Goddess and other tales from Indian Canada'' (1956), ''Dawn in Arctic Alaska'' (1957) a popular account of the one year (1913 to 1914) he spent among the [[Inupiat]] of Northern Alaska, ''The Economics of Cypress'' (1962), and four scholarly reports on Eskimo Administration in Alaska, Canada, [[Labrador]], and [[Greenland]], plus a fifth report providing an analysis and overview of the four government systems (published between 1962 and 1968 by the [[Arctic Institute of North America]]).<ref name="Jenness 2008. p.33"/> He was able to complete these writings due to an award from the Guggenheim Foundation to further “whatever scholarly purposes he deemed fit,” an award that amounted to more than two and half times his annual pension from the Canadian government. When health prevented him from escaping Canada's bitter winters, he commenced writing his memoir, a project which his son, Stuart Edward Jenness, “completed” and published in 2008 under the title ''Through Darkening Spectacles''.<ref>Richling, Barnett (2012).
