Originally published in 1986, this volume deals with various
aspects of the life of the pastoralists who live in the area
between what was Senegambia and Cameroon. It analyses the changing
relations between pastoralists and agricultural peoples, and the
changes that pastoral societies are undergoing with urbanisation,
increased central government control and the spread of market
relations. The papers are in both English and French and include
historical studies of aspects of the history of Adamawa, the
Fulani, the Twareg, the Shuwa Arabs and the Koyam in pre-colonial
times. There is also a survey of the state of Fula language studies
and the variety of Fula literature; discussions of the changing
nature of pastoralism and the nomadic way of life in Cameroon,
Senegal and Nigeria, including the effects of drought.
