These they mine for clues to the 19th-century contents of the British imagination and of Tswana minds. They are themselves imagining the imagination of others, and they do the job with characteristic aplomb....The first volume creates an appetite for the second.""-Sally Falk Moore, American AnthropologistHistoryLondon Missionary SocietyMissionsSocial conditionsTswana (African people)Tswana (African people)Tswana (African people)HistoryTswana (African people)MissionsTswana (African people)Social conditionsHistory.London Missionary Society.Missions.Social conditions.Tswana (African people).Tswana (African people).Tswana (African people)HistoryTswana (African people)MissionsTswana (African people)Social conditions303.48/241/00899639775303.4824100899639775Comaroff Jean251727Comaroff John L251726AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK996248192403316Of Revelation and Revolution, Volume 12416377UNISA
