The summary is limited to the geographical area south of the Zambezi and Cunene Rivers.” “The survey involved field trips to as many reserves as possible. Pottery demonstrations were watched, potters interviewed and photographs taken of earthenware utensils in use and methods of manufacture.” Tribes included in the survey were the Nguni, Tsonga, Sotho, Venda, Lemba, Chopi, Shona, Herero, Ambo and Okavango tribes (non-Ambo). Includes 5 maps. Some wear to the centre-fold of Map 1/2. 434 Pages. Binding firm. Condition: Fair. Binding: Softcover. Thick card-wraps with some edge-wear. Handwritten title to spine.
