Description

Chauncey High Stigand was a British army officer who was fluent in Swahili. He was posted both Egypt and Africa. While in Africa, he collected, translated, and transcribed original folktales that were only handed down through their telling. His intent in writing the book with his wife was to introduce them British shool-children, who knew only "white" tales. The title is also misleading by suggesting that only children will enjoy the stories. In fact, anyone who enjoys original, African folk-tales will enjoy the 29 tales. This edition of the book contains all 64 original illustrations of African people and animals, rejuvenated.
