  • Notes Sironka’s work is a commentary on the Maasai, his people’s way of life. As they live and experience much of life together, Maasai warriors build a very strong brotherly friendship. The depth of this friendship is as blood relatives even to the point that, when these warriors mature and have their own families, their children will not be allowed to intermarry. *Sironka, Nicholas.
