Scope and Contents
"A great deal of fishing is at the subsistence level or on a small commercial level. There were some commercial fishing operations by European-owned companies on the great lakes, but these virtually disappeared after Zairanization (between 1973 and 1975). [F. Scott Bobb, 1999: Historical Dictionary of Democratic Republic of Congo, The Scarecrow Press]. This photograph was taken when Eliot Elisofon traveled to Africa from early March 1951 to July 1951.
