| Description: | This book gives an historical account of the development of pastoralism in Africa, and its adaptation to the open grasslands which cover large parts of the continent. How African pastoralists cope with their environment varies in social terms, but ultimately these social contstraints still have to deal with the vagaries of localised and seasonal rainfall which lead to inconsistencies in the availability of pasture. |
| Key Points: | The book will interest archaeologists, development workers, anthropologists and students of African history. |
