{"product_id":"9781780967899","title":"Warrior Peoples of East Africa 1840-1900","description":"Less well known than the Zulu of South Africa, the warriors of East Africa had just as fearsome a reputation. This fascinating study, illustrated with rare early drawings and meticulous colour plates, covers six of most prominent tribes. The prowess of the lion-hunting Masai deterred all foreign penetration for most of the 19th century; the Ngoni, driven north by the Zulu, revolutionized warfare in the region; the HeHe put up fierce resistance to German colonisers; the Ruga-Ruga produced two formidable warlords and adorned themselves with bloody trophies; the Nandi showed reckless bravery even against machine guns; and the Turkana dominated one of the most pitiless wildernesses in all of Africa.","brand":"Bloomsbury USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47131159789808,"sku":"9781780967899","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781780967899_p0.jpg?v=1769890785","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781780967899","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
