Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Cat´s Cradles From Many Lands My idea in writing this book was to gather into a small volume representative cat´s-cradles from all over the world. In the case of each country I have given the easiest examples first, so as to accustom my readers by degrees to the more difficult movements. The figures are not really difficult to remember, but at first fairly constant practice is required to fix them in the memory. I wish to take this opportunity of expressing my most grateful thanks to my father, Dr. A. C. Haddon, for assisting me in collecting and putting together the material, and also for keeping my interest in the subject alive ever since he returned from Torres Straits in 1899. My thanks are also due to Dr. G. B. Gordon, of the Philadelphia Free Museum of Science and Art, for the Eskimo figures; to Dr. W. A. Cunnington for the East African figures; to Mr. John Parkinson for those from the West Coast, and to Mr. A. R. Brown of Trinity College, Cambridge, for figures from the Andaman Islands.
