Description
Noted archaeologist and geologist Oswald studies the Kavirondo region and peoples ("only three weeks' journey distant from London yet in a state of isolation and aloofness from the complex civilisation on which I had so recently turned my back"), in this well illustrated account with some 70 photos and fold-out map to rear. Edge of block is spotted, and half title heavily so, but otherwise outbreaks are sporadic. Bar this, all in good internal order. Former owner's name to fep. Blue boards lightly shaken and well worn with fading to spine. Better than a reading copy, but only a little. 8vo. xii, 219pp
