1925. This book presents a record of the interesting but steadily vanishing customs and ideas gathered during twenty-four years' residence amongst these shy inhabitants of the Lake Nyasa region, from witch doctors, diviners, hunters, fishers and every native sources. It is not an attempt to depict the daily life of the Konde people, it rather aims at indicating, as far as an outsider can, the leading ideas and practices which make up the background, leaving others the task of bringing the foreground into proper relief.Mackenzie, D. R. is the author of 'Spirit Ridden Konde 1925' with ISBN 9780766146396 and ISBN 0766146391.
