427 pages: illustrations, 10 maps. (Zambeziana; volume 9). Paperback.

Beach points out that the Shona were not known by that name until the 19th century and he thus examines all the tribal communities who lived in central Africa (in the area roughly where Zimbabwe lies now) from the earliest times. A scarce title dealing with an area little covered.
