Life With Trans-Siberian Savages is a book written by Benjamin Douglas Howard in 1893. The book is a personal account of the author's experiences living among the people of Siberia, particularly the Buriats, who were considered to be savages by many Europeans at the time. Howard provides a detailed description of their culture, customs, and way of life, including their shamanistic beliefs, hunting practices, and social organization. He also discusses his own interactions with the Buriats, including his struggles to communicate with them due to language barriers and cultural differences. The book is an interesting and informative account of a little-known culture from a bygone era, and is a valuable resource for anyone interested in anthropology, history, or Siberian culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
