First Edition: 140 pages, colour frontispiece, 3 maps, numerous line drawings, pictorial cloth, a very good copy in frayed dust jacket.

The stated aim of this book is to provide a background to the "ethnological, environmental and inspirational sources" of indigenous African art. This effort is progressive compared to previous decades, moving away from purely object-focused collecting towards acknowledging the cultural context of the art.
