Additional Information

Over the years many books have been written about the San of southern Africa, who are widely known as the Bushmen and frequently viewed as one entity. This is the first international publication in which the San of today step forward to tell their own story in their own words.

The San people of Southern Africa are often seen as the 'first people' of a region that now makes up South Africa, Namibia, and Botswana. While their history has often been condensed into the single story of the 'bushman', this work restores the compelling diversity of their history. Organized as a series of conversations conducted by young San interviewers that went out into their communities to collect the thoughts and feelings of their elders and peers, this compilation captures the spirit of modern San communities and helps create an understanding of their rich history. A wealth of information about San communities in other countries such as Angola, Zambia, and Zimbabwe, is also included.
