‎Intéressant tapuscrit sur papier fin, 108 pages plus 2 cartes manuscrites au début de louvrage. Quelques réparations malhabiles à lintérieur au scotch. Envoi de lauteur à son frère sur le premier feuillet blanc daté du 17 mai 1948. Henri Berre a servi plus de dix ans au Tchad, entre 1942 et 1962. Son premier poste, où il resta cinq ans, fut celui de Goz Beida, chef-lieu du Dar Sila. L'ouvrage porte donc l'empreinte de ce premier terrain. C'est à Goz Beida, en 1946, que l'auteur composa la première version de son étude. Il remit ce texte sur le métier à la fin de sa vie, après une carrière administrative bien remplie. Le livre fut publié en 1985 par le C.N.R.S. C'est un petit livre sur un petit pays bien mal connu, aux confins du Tchad et de la République du Soudan. Dans ses plus grandes dimensions, le Dar Sila s'inscrit dans un carré de moins de 200 km de côté. C'est une région de montagne, à la végétation abondante, qui a servi de zone refuge pendant tout le XIXème siècle, hors de portée des deux puissances : le Ouaddaï (au Tchad) et le Darfour (au Soudan). Rare. 1 vol. large 4to typescript (280 x 220 mm) of : [3] ff. (title, foreword) ; 108 pp ; 2 handwritten maps at beginning of work. Letter from the author to his brother on the first blank page, dated May 17, 1948 (a few unskilful repairs to the inside with tape). Period binding, North African work, with cold-stamped brown leather, decorated on goatskin on the first board. Interesting typescript on fine paper, with a letter from the author to his brother on the first blank page, dated May 17, 1948. Henri Berre served more than ten years in Chad, between 1942 and 1962. His first post, where he remained for five years, was Goz Beida, capital of Dar Sila. This book therefore bears the imprint of that first posting. It was in Goz Beida, in 1946, that the author wrote the first version of his study. He went back to the drawing board at the end of his life, after a busy administrative career. The book was published in 1985 by the C.N.R.S. It's a small book about a little-known country, on the borders of Chad and the Republic of Sudan. At its largest, Dar Sila lies within a square of less than 200 km. It is a mountainous region, with abundant vegetation, which served as a refuge zone throughout the 19th century, beyond the reach of the two powers: Ouaddaï (in Chad) and Darfour (in Sudan). Rare.‎
