Though the music and the dancing are missing we have in these lyrics a vivid cross-section of the emotional reactions of the African songmaker to life's joys and sorrows. There is interest here for all, while for the anthropologist or other student of African life and thought the lyrics form most valuable social documents.

"Hugh Tracey has long been known for his intimate studies of the music, dances and stories of many of the Bantu Tribes of Southern and Central Africa. His enthusiasm for the art of the genuine African musician, dancer and storyteller was largely responsible for the establishment of the African Music Society of which he is the Honorary Secretary. Born in England, he came to South Africa by way of the tobacco fields of Southern Rhodesia and is now engaged upon the collection of a representative library of gramophone records of African music which he hopes will firmly establish the international reputation of those African folk composers who have remained true to their craft and national genius. This book illustrates his belief that in most African settings, truth is more fascinating than romanticised fiction." Tribes whose dances are described and illustrated include the Zulu, Ngoni, Xhosa, Sotho, Pedi, Tswana, Shangaan, Ndau, Tswa and Chopi.…
