The field study was prompted by the conditions in Bamenda, when despite considerable natural resources, there was underpopulation, a very high infant mortality, and the status of women was very low. This rich and engaging study looks at all aspects of life in Bamena, and includes a number of original photographs.Routledge classic ethnographies.WomenCameroonWest Cameroon (Cameroon)Economic conditionsWomen330.96711Kaberry Phyllis Mary1910-244877MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910962405403321Women of the grassfields4496494UNINA
