Great Experience

Loved how fast and easy it was to order. Book was shipped and delivered just in time for my class. Book in great shape and for a good price. Would definately recommend.

Fulani social life

I worked over a period of 15 and one half year among Fulani people in Niger. Riesman's book gives alot of good and accurate insights about Fulani life and culture. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn about the Fulani in that part of the world.
