Howard Timmins, 1968 1st Edition
Hardcover with dustjacket - there is some foxing present on endpapers and page edges.
'The following tales, most of them suitable for a higher age group than those of the "Fireside" series, are faithful representations of the age-old Folk Tales of the Bantu of Africa. Among the Bantu complex, tales are for the ears of all who care to listen, old and very young alike. Nothing is modified for the ears of tender years. For this reason, many of the tales of antiquity collected by the author have been excluded from her previous books, because of the Young People having claimed the "Fireside" series for their own. Too good to be lost to memory, a selection of these tales has now been combined with other milder ones to form this, the author's final book.'.
