Book Synopsis Vernacular Architecture of West Africa by : Jean-Paul Bourdier
Book excerpt: "The dwellings of hundreds of African ethnic groups offer a variety of ideas and construction practices which contradict the widespread image of the primitive huts comonly atributed to rural Africa... The cultural dimension and its application using different architectural practices are illustrated in this work."--Book jacket.
