Originally published in 1966 this study gives a detailed account of
all aspects of Gurage life. An introductory chapter on South-West
Ethiopia and the history of the area is followed by descriptions of
Gurage settlements, ensete (banana-like plants) cultivation,
kinship and marriage, the political system and religious
organization. The author's fieldwork and discussions with many
resident and migrant Gurage in Addis Ababa enabled him to provide a
valuable account of a hitherto little known people and ethnographic
area.
