Description: The Scramble for Art in Central Africa [Paperback] Schildkrout, Enid and Keim, Curtis A. Product Overview The contributors to this volume trace the life history of artifacts that were brought to Europe and America from Congo toward the end of the nineteenth century, and became the subjects of museum displays.
