      Synopsis

      In 'The Mountain People', Colin M. Turnbull, the celebrated author of the classic 'The Forest People', describes the dehumanization of the Ik, African tribesmen who in less than three generations have deteriorated from being once-prosperous hunters to scattered bands of hostile, starving people whose only goal is individual survival.

      Annotation

      The devastating study of a once prosperous African tribe that has deteriorated into a band of desperate, hostile people intent only on individual survival.
