Among The Matabele is a book written by David Carnegie and first published in 1894. The book is a personal account of Carnegie's travels through the Matabeleland region of Zimbabwe in the late 1800s. The book begins with Carnegie's arrival in Cape Town, South Africa, and his journey northward towards the Matabeleland region. Along the way, he encounters various tribes and cultures, and provides detailed descriptions of their customs and traditions. Once in Matabeleland, Carnegie spends time with the Matabele people, who were known for their fierce reputation as warriors. He describes their way of life, their beliefs, and their interactions with neighboring tribes and European settlers. Throughout the book, Carnegie also recounts his own experiences and adventures, including hunting expeditions and encounters with dangerous animals. He also provides insights into the political climate of the region, including the tensions between the Matabele people and the British colonial government. Overall, Among The Matabele is a fascinating historical account of a little-known region of Africa in the late 1800s, as seen through the eyes of a curious and adventurous traveler.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
