With contributions from leading researchers in the fields of anthropology, ethnomusicology, and folklore, this volume contains personal, imaginative accounts of ethnographic fieldwork that do not fit into a traditional scholarly context, yet are a vital part of research. Some pieces are engaging autobiographical accounts of ethnographers' experiences in the field, while others are fictional narratives. These tales take readers to a range of locales, offering richly detailed portraits of informants, local cultures, and life in the field.
