About this Item
First edition. Very good in good, whole unclipped dust jacket with light soil, chipping at head and heel, and creased rear wrap. No former owner marks. (Jacket) "This is the story of renowned caravan traders in slaves and ivory - of a people who have retreated into a remote region of Africa to preserve their strange and beautiful customs. In telling of Jamba and his love for Miapia the author recreates a picture of the People of the Fog as seen through the eyes of one of their own tribe." In the story the anthropologist author conveys the tensions between the tribal way of life and that of the white man who dominates the region. It also reflects his fascination with the Ovimbundu people with whom he lived, where he gathered material for this book. Seller Inventory # 283341
