The Tigers of Baluchistan
For five years, the author lived among the Bugtis, traditionally known as the tigers of Baluchistan, who are one of the most distinguished Baluch tribes of Pakistan. She travelled extensively in remote parts of tribal territory, sharing a tough, primitive way of life unchanged for centuries and recording it on tape, cine, and still films. The result is a fascinating and very vivid eyewitness account of how the Bugtis are dealing with their sudden confrontation with twentieth century industrialization, following the discovery and development of Asia’s largest natural gas field inside their area.
