Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Limited Edition. A clean, tight copy, with no flaws to the book itself. The jacket shows considerable wear. A mylar Brodart cover now protects it and improves its appearance. The author has evidently signed this copy (#373), although I wouldn't call it legible! The book not only recounts many stories of the Masai, but also includeds a bibliography and a glossary. An alternate spelling of the tribe's name is given to aid those in search.; Signed by Author.
