Description
Trade Paperback. Fine. This landmark study of the American Indian berdache documents how tribal cultures venerated these androgynous people. Walter L. Williams combines historical documentation with his own important and controversial fieldwork to explore all facets of the berdache tradition. An acclaimed authority on the subject, Williams is the first outside observer to participate in both the public rituals and private lives of berdaches in various tribes.
