What is Tribes Of The Sahara - about?
Contrary to the popular image projected in fiction and by movies and television, the Sahara is by no means an unending sea of sand: its landscape is infinitely varied, and in its vast area from the western frontier of Egypt to the shores of the Atlantic are found steppes and valleys, upland and lowland, with an incredible variety of vegetation and natural features.In this book, an expert who has lived for many years in Algeria describes the peoples of the Sahara in terms of their land and its problems. Beginning with the dawn of the Christian era, he writes of the forces of the post that have shaped their language, their dress, food and way of life. He describes in detail the nomads and sedentary peoples of this great land and has written a book that fills a need for specific information about an important area.
