NOTES | From the introduction: 'Of late years a great deal of interest has been taken in die folklore of uncivilized tribes by those who have made it their business to study mankind. It has been found that a knowledge of the traditionary tales of a people is a key to their ideas and a standard of their powers of thought.' This book is an interesting document on the folklore of the indigenous tribes of the Eastern Cape in the latter half of the 19th century. A scarce book on the subject. |
