A Life apart: Viewed from the Hills

A work based on interviews with hilltribe people from six tribes in northern Thailand - the Yao, Akha, Lahu, Hmong, Lisu and the Karen. The interviews are arranged in six sections according to tribe and deal with a wide range of subjects from traditional culture to love and sex. An introduction followed by a fairly detailed "notes" on hilltribe lifestyles and history precedes the interviews.
