REVIEWS:

“An authoritative and strikingly original overview of African history up to 1800...”

—Patrick Manning, Northeastern University, author of Migration in Modern World History, 1500-2000

“[C]hallenging and innovative...thorough and masterful..... One hopes that Christopher Ehret has initiated a new trend in the writing of African history textbooks,one that challenges previously accepted chronologies and ideas and presents us with an interpretation that connects social, economic, political, and cultural history.”

—African Studies Review
