| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "The Land of Fetish" by A. B. Ellis is a travel account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the author's experiences and observations in West Africa, particularly focusing on regions like Gambia and Dahomey (Benin), while providing insights into local customs, social structures, and the effects of colonial rule. Through a mix of personal anecdotes and historical commentary, Ellis delves into the cultures, beliefs, and the complexities of interactions among various ethnic groups. The opening of the book introduces the author's arrival at the Gambia, depicting the landscape of Bathurst and its inhabitants, notably the Jolloffs, who are described with distinct cultural traits. Ellis's narrative presents a vivid picture of daily life, from the architecture to local markets and notable social customs, such as burial practices. He conveys both admiration and criticism for the different races he encounters, illustrating the contrasts between the Christianized natives of Bathurst and the strictly Mohammedan Jolloffs. His observations set the stage for further exploration of the unique practices and issues facing West Africa, including colonial governance and ethnographic details of the communities he visits.
