5.0 out of 5 stars What a fantastic book!, 16 Mar 2004

By	K. Burman - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Nomads of Niger (Hardcover)

It was just by chance that I happened across this gorgeous book while browing the sale items in my local book shop. I had no prior interest in Niger (and lets face it not many people do)but flicking through it the the combination of excellent photos of the men and women of the Wodabe tribe plus the interestingly written and illustrated text describing their traditions and way of life induced me to buy it and Im so glad I did. The photographer, Carol Beckwith, spent over 18 months living among the tribe and the 144 colour photos show not just an intimate portrait of family life but also something of their daily life and of their fantastic ceremonies. Also because the photographer and the writer were both women themselves they seemed to have greater access to the women of the tribe than maybe a man would have done thus giving the book a good balance with stories and opinions from the women just as much as the men. Probably one of the best phtography books Ive ever bought. Highly recommended

I particularly like the fact that a portion of the royalties from the book go to the Wodaabe tribe. They deserve it for so generously sharing their culture with us.
