Description and Table of Contents

Description

From the heart of National Geographic comes this expansive guide to the clans, tribes, ethnicities and peoples of the world. Organized in keeping with our knowledge of the migration of human groups through history, with statistics and cultural portrait of each ethnic group, the book becomes a fascinating round-the-world tour of customs and traditions plus a go-to source for background information to round out one's own family history. Maps, photographs and traditional sayings enhance the accounts of many of the most important and interesting cultures in the world today.
