Sobre este artículo
(London: Chatto & Windus, 2001) 0701169060. 8vo; original blue boards, lettered in gilt on spine; laminated pictorial dustwrapper; pp. xxxix + (i) + 264, incl. index; plates; maps. Some foxing to top edge. Near fine condition. "Sandy Gall, who is best known for his reporting of the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, has taken up the cause of the Bushmen. His interest in their plight dates back to the 1950s and 1960s when he was working as a foreign correspondent for Reuters; in 1998 he visited the Central Kalahari for the first time. His book celebrates the culture of these unique people, their amazing affinity with and knowledge of the natural world; and their resilience and sense of humour. He has portrayed many fascinating individuals who have been involved, for good or ill, in their tragic history and their present predicament. Here, for the first time, is the full story of the slaughter of an innocent people. The Bushmen of Southern Africa speaks not only for the Bushmen but for the native indigenous peoples of the world. It faces up to a shameful and bloodstained past and looks at burning current issues such as human rights and the ownership and exploitation of land." .
