Synopsis
Some Last People is an extraordinary portrait of human tribes, and cultures, that are on the verge of extinction. Though physical massacre is not necessarily an immediate risk, some of the tribes are threatened by starvation, while others may cease to exist as they are due to the overwhelming pressure to assimilate into mainstream cultures. Chapters cover the Brogpas of Bhutan, the Ge minority of China, the Tarahumara/Raramuri of Mexico, the Nomads of Mongolia, and the Yukaghir of Siberia. Illustrated with striking color photographs throughout, Some Last People is a choice and compelling pick for public library collections.
