When British anthropologist Nigel Barley set up home among the Dowayo people in northern Cameroon, he knew how fieldwork should be conducted. Unfortunately, nobody had told the Dowayo. His compulsive, witty account of first fieldwork offers a wonderfully inspiring introduction to the real life of a cultural anthropologist doing research in a Third World area. Both touching and hilarious, Barley's unconventional storyin which he survived boredom, hostility, disaster, and illnessaddresses many critical issues in anthropology and in fieldwork.Also by Nigel Barley and available from Waveland Press: Grave Matters: Encounters with Death around the World (ISBN 9781577664310). Titles of related interest available from Waveland Press: DeVita, Stumbling toward Truth: Anthropologists at Work (ISBN 9781577661252) and GardnerHoffman, Dispatches from the Field: Neophyte Ethnographers in a Changing World (ISBN 9781577664512).
