Dogon: Africa's People of the Cliffs by Walter Van Beek

The Dogon people of Mali in West Africa are noted for their colourful masked dances and ceremonies, a distinctive adobe architecture, and a tightly-knit social structure. They live in a remarkable area, making their homes along a 200-kilometer cliff face which runs like a wall across the land.
Stephenie Hollyman has worked as a journalist in many parts of the world, and her photographs have appeared in many publications, including the New York Times, and Time magazine. Walter E. A. van Beek is associate professor of cultural anthropology at the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands. He has done fieldwork in Africa for 30 years, since 1979 with the Dogon of Mali.
