How it works

Register

As a farmer at the edge of the Kalahari, Fritz Metzger (1911-1999) succeeded, after a number of vain efforts, to get the extremely shy Bushmen, who live outside the farmlands, to come to work for him; at first only for a day, then for weeks and months, till at last, for a matter of about ten years.

Narro and his clan is a collection of authentic bushman fables collected in the 1940's of South West Africa. This book was published in 1950 with the co-operation of the S.W.A Scientific Society. The foreword by Dr Vedder. 93 pages including many black and white pictures.
