This is a great article written by a woman from Canada on the different views & habits towards breastfeeding between her home of Canada and Mongolia where she lived for three years. I must admit that my wife's breastfeeding of our now three children mirrors some of the Mongolian practices - almost continuous feeding for several months ("grazing", as my wife calls it), breastfeeding on-demand rather than by a clock, still giving most of the baby's nourishment until about 12-15 months old, and continuing for several years afterwards. Good stuff!
