There's a decent grammar of West Greenlandic in the Croom Helm series (1984), by M.D. Fortescue. A good deal of linguistics work has been done by Alana Johns and Anthony ("Tony") C. Woodbury. Those would be two names to look up. I don't know which language Woodbury works on, but Johns works mostly on Inuktitut. Matt.
