In and out of the Maasai Steppe powerfully evokes the beauty of the arid landscape of the Maasai Steppe of Tanzania and takes you on an intimate journey into the lives of the Maasai women. It explores their current plights - threatened by climate change - in the light of colonial history, in particular the interface between the Maasai and colonials, post-independence history of land seizures, as well as the divide between old and new ways of life. This is also a story of empowerment - it documents the struggles of a group of women who developed a new livelihood income in the face of current difficulties through their traditional beadwork. The women also share their stories - how it feels to share a husband with many co-wives, their beliefs, social hierarchy and social changes. This beautifully written book provides a fresh and captivating perspective on the context and culture of the Maasai Book jacket.
