Summary

For the past thirty years or so, Bernard Faye has been crisscrossing four continents meeting people who devote their lives to their animals and to the land. His book looks at the paths taken by herdsmen he has come across in the heat of the Sahel, the sandstorms of the central Asian steppes, the humid heat of the Amazon, the mountains of the Cévennes and the piedmonts of Abyssinia. He tells stories of transhumance, and of children who were born herdsmen and whose birth plunges them into a world in which animals are the be all and end all.The book also tells of the links-in terms of both work and festivities-that both daily life and exceptional events weave between herdsmen and their animals.
