MAASAI - By Tepilit Ole Saitoti - Hardback Book - ISBN: 0810980991 | |

| £50.00

| |
| A kind of autobiography, since it is written by a Maasai, documenting their living story, it recounts the ancient legends, reveals the songs and prayers, and vividly describes the stages of life for a Maasai: childhood, initiation, warrior rank, and finally elderhood. Each chapter of the vigorous and intimate text is illustrated with line drawings and superb full page photographs. Here are the feasts and ceremonies of the tribe; the daily work of maintaining the herds, beading skirts, and building huts and kraals; the warriors` games, dances, and flirtations; the elders` quiet moments of contemplation. Seldom has a people been more completely and sympathetically portrayed. Slight damage to pages 250-51, 256-57, 266-67. Front end paper has been neatly removed by previous owner. This is not a library book.
