Libro Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Poor. 1st Edition. 1st printing. Book shows almost no wear. DJ in two pieces and missing spine. Erratum slip tipped in at page 5. "Part fiction, part autobiography, part satire, part folklore and anthropology, this book gives a picture of mid-African tribal life in contact with Western civilization." The DJ flap characterizes Nyabongo as "a younger brother of a ruling tribal potentate," "descended from a long line of African kings." A startlingly uncommon title. 278 pages.
