摘要

Trevor Marchand makes his goal very clear in the introduction to this well-written text on the architectural trade in Djenng: "Although this is a book about building, architecture is not its central focus. Architecture, instead, provides the backdrop to a detailed depiction of craftsmanship and the agents responsible for physically producing and reproducing Djen-ne^'s unique style-Soudanais houses and its grand mosque" (12). That said, although the book is primarily about masons and the architectural trade, there is plenty to be found here about the buildings themselves. With an architecture degree and a PhD in anthropology, and after having conducted fieldwork in both northern Nigeria and Yemen, Marchand is extremely well qualified to write such a study. It is a tribute to his skills as an author that the text is not only informative in a scholarly sense but also immensely enjoyable to read.
