As about the Compendium of Nuär Origin, Culture, and Moral Evaluation, the Nuär people, usually, referred to as Nuer, are one of the largest ethnic groups in the Republic of South Sudan. They can be metaphorically considered as the right arm of the new nation. If ever you want to know more about these noble and God-fearing people, their history, lifestyle, geographical and demographic surroundings and cultural practices, Father James Tab Charoa has said it all in this book. I had heard and learned much about the Nuär people over the years, having studied, worked and lived with some of them. I read many books written about the Nuär by prominent anthropologists such as E. Evans-Pritchard and P.P. Howell (on Nuer marriage), and Douglas H. Johnson (on Nuer prophets). These writers have laid good foundations on which any research on Nuär people can be further developed. Whereas I had gotten it all about the Nuär people, I came to know that much more was still to come which the author has now completed in his book.
