Description:
Harry N. Abrams, 1990, 1990. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Folio, hardcover, gigantic, very heavy book, VG beige pictorial dj. Two talented photographers focus on the Horn of Africa--an "ark" that shelters an astonishing variety of landscapes and human societies. Starting with the Christian Amharas of Lalibela and Axum and the Falashas of Lake Tana, they complete an arc that takes them to the seacoast of Eritrea, Djibouti and Somalia, as far south as Lamu in Kenya, and finally to the remote peoples of the Southeast who still engage in stick fighting, body painting, scarification and the wearing of lip plates. 320 pp. mainly photos and descriptions.
