Saitoti, Tepilit Ole
The Worlds of a Maasai Warrior
THE WORLDS OF A MAASAI WARRIOR. Random House, N.Y. 1986, first edition stated, 144 pages. Over the centuries the bravery of the Maasai had enabled them to acquire large tracts of land and the highest number of stock per person among tribes of Africa. Now, however, things have changed for the worst. Our huge landholdings are shrinking at a frightening rate and our livestock is diminishing as a result of the encroachment on our land by other tribes and the creation of national parks by the governments of Kenya and Tanzania. Without the land and the cattle, there will be no Maasai. But my people are still holding on and continue to celebrate our culture despite the urgent demands that we change our ways and assimilate to contemporary modes of living. If change must come, as seems inevitable, it must be gradual, not abrupt. We will adapt, we will survive. Dust jacket is price-clipped otherwise jacket and book are Very Fine. $45.00. ID#: 4622
