Description:
London: Longman Group Limited, 1980. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. 9 1/2" x 6 1/4", xxii, 393 pages, black and white illustration on title-page, 61 black and white plates, 3 maps, detailed appendices, glossary, bibliography, folded table of weight-names tipped in on rear fixed endpaper. A cultural history rather than an economic analysis of the gold trade, this extensively documented and illustrated work examines a well-known art form - the goldweights of the Akan peoples of Ghana and the Ivory Coast - in their historical and cultural context. Hb, very good in near fine dw; there are occasional marginal lines accenting lines or paragraphs; but for these the book is near fine. .
