This captivating early work, first published in 1911 is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. The Bushmen are an indigenous people whose territory covers South Africa, Lesotho, Swaziland, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Mozambique and Angola. Traditionally hunter-gatherers, since the 1950s they have begun to practice settled farming. The bushmen are perhaps most well-known due to their much publicised conflict with the government of Botswana which has been aiming to remove them from their ancestral lands since the 1990s. With a preface including a detailed description of the phonology of the Bushman language (part of the family of click languages of Southern Africa) and the methods undertaken in the collection of folklore. This is a thoroughly engaging book that will delight amateur and professional anthropologists alike. Contents Include: Mythology, Fables, Legends, and Poetry: The Mantis; Sun and Moon; Stars; Other Myths; Animal Fables; Legends; Poetry; History (Natural and Personal): Animals and their Habits – Adventures with them – and Hunting; Personal History, Customs and Superstitions; Appendix.

Canning & Preserving

An inspirational journey to openness and vulnerability, love and self-worth, seeing and being seen. From the outside, Leah Zaccaria appeared to have it all: the picture-perfect family, the stylish suburban home, the blossoming corporate career. But on the inside, she was still the lonely little girl hiding under the kitchen table. The girl who hoped that, if she did everything right, someone would come to her rescue. That someone would finally see her. It wasn’t until she started practicing yoga that she realized achievement isn’t the same as worth, and that conformity can’t buy love. Seen is the story of Zaccaria’s life, her transformation from exhausted overachiever to openhearted vulnerability seeker. Now, as a yoga teacher and owner of hauteyoga Queen Anne and shefayoga Roosevelt, she wants to share her journey—the wounds and the joys, the self-deceptions and the self-realizations—so that others will feel free to do the same.
