In "The Pygmies," Hawthorne retells a classic Greek myth about the adventures of Hercules and his encounters with a tribe of Pygmies. The story is an adaptation of the original myth from Greek mythology. Hawthorne's version is written in a style suitable for younger readers and is known for its moral and allegorical elements. It explores themes of courage, strength, and the challenges of facing the unknown. Nathaniel Hawthorne's "Tanglewood Tales" is a collection of stories that adapt and retell classic myths and legends from various cultures. These stories are often aimed at a younger audience and provide moral lessons and entertainment through their imaginative narratives.

Joan Mark offers an interpretive biography of Patrick Tracy Lowell Putnam (1904–53), who spent twenty-five years living among the Bambuti pygmies of the Ituri Forest in what is now Zaire. On the Epulu River he constructed Camp Putnam as a harmonious multiracial community. He modeled his camp on the “dude ranches” of the American West, taking in paying guests while running a medical clinic and occasionally offering legal aid to the local people, and assumed the role of intermediary between locals and visitors, including Colin M. Turnbull, author of the classic Forest People. Mark describes Putnam’s mercurial relations with family and with his African and American wives—and follows him to his sad and violent end. She places Patrick Putnam within the context of three different anthropological traditions and examines his contribution as an expert on pygmies.

Excerpt from Life Among the Pygmies: Of the Ituri Forest, Congo Free State Before writing about my little pygmy friends, I should first of all like to mention a few facts about the Congo Free State. This enormous country, reaching from the Nile to the West Coast, may practically be called one huge forest. Fortunately for its opening up, Nature has provided it with the most splendid service of water- ways in the world. Twisting and twining, the mighty Congo river runs like a snake through its centre, gathering into its bed from north and south many other large rivers like the Kasai, Ubangi, and Aruwimi (the latter of which joined by the Ituri, traverses the whole of the Stanley Forest), with their sources rising close to the Nile. Last year I had a most interesting hunting trip from Lado to Boma, merely touching the northern edge of Stanley Forest; I then made my way on to try for that rare animal the okapi, in the big forest near Enguetra. The rainy season drove me out before getting a shot, though I did manage to see one okapi. It was some pygmy photographs taken on this trip which caused so many friends at home to ask why I could not bring some of these pygmies to England, and I was thus first led to think of doing so.
