Description
Vanishing Cultures of South Africa by Peter Magubane is a South African cultural history and photography book about traditional customs, communities and ways of life in a changing world. It was published in 1998 by Struik Publishers, runs to 168 pages, and is a large-format hardback that combines text and photographs in a visually strong presentation.
This non-fiction title will appeal to readers interested in South Africa, cultural heritage, indigenous communities, photography and Africana. Listings for the book describe it as a record of traditional life before it disappears, and booksellers also note a foreword by Nelson Mandela, which adds to its interest as a South African title.
This second-hand copy is in good condition overall. The dust jacket shows a little wear, but the book itself remains neat. Please see the photos, including the extra back cover photo, for a better idea of the jacket condition.
