About this Item

Octavo. Frontispiece, and other illustrations by Winfield Coleman 648pp., index. "Salinas Pedraza, a Nahnu native, wrote this comprehensive ethnography of his own people, in his own way, and in his own language. The work was guided, translated, and annotated by noted American anthropologist H. Russell Bernard." Pedraza and Bernard have addressed one of the major problems of ethnography---how to obtain both a researcher's and a native's perspective on a culture. A very good copy bound in black cloth, spine lettering gilt, in a good blue dust jacket lettered and decorated in white, a crease down the front panel, edges and corners rubbed with just a few tiny closed edge tears and wear. Page 409 has light blue underling to a few lines.
