Tales from Africa
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Here are several dozen folktales from Africa. What's so nice about this book, is that it explores fairytales unknown to most Westerners. However, they are just as complex and as wonderous as those European fairytales we are familiar with. Paul Radin is an esteemed anthropologist, and he brings a scholar's touch to his collection. Highly recommended for anyone interested in folklore -- adults and kids alike.
