Reynolds discusses environmental changes that have affected the traditional way of life of the Maasai people of Kenya; for example, nomadic herding is giving way to farming as grazing lands shrink and water shortages increase. Vivid photographs appear on every page, elucidating the text's descriptions of the Maasai's adaptation to their shifting world. The handsome volume is useful for its cultural and environmental information. Glos.
