- Summary:
- This is the story of an anthropological expedition to Albania in 1929. The author said that his motive in writing the book was to give an account of the rugged Highlands as seen by an Albanian, in contrast to "travel accounts written by foreign visitors" to Albania. The book presents a faithful portrayal of Northern Albania as it was some seventy years ago.
