BLACK TENTS OF BALUCHISTAN
An ethnographic study of the nomadic Baluch people of the highland Sarhad region of southeastern Iran. Salzman (anthropology, McGill U.) spent twenty-seven months with the Baluch recording the daily life of these people, he here discusses the transformation they have made from politically autonomous warriors to devout Sunni Muslims since being conquered by the Shia Persians in 1935. He describes how their social and political organization affects their lives, and examines, in some depth, their primary means of earning an income: herding, cultivating, raiding and trading, migrating, and laboring. The book includes a number of the author's photographs of the Baluch. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR
