'Another authoritative survey ...' History Today '... this is an excellent work of synthesis.' History '... this book gives an excellent survey of a period in African history which is still relatively neglected in comparison with the colonial period. In particular, scholars and students of Africa who wish to explore how Africa's internal dynamics have been shaped by and responded to natural environment and its position in a wider world of socioeconomic and cultural contacts, may find this book extremely useful.' South African Historical Journal 'The volume betrays a high level of scholarship associated with the names of both authors, and it will surely find its readership among students and the general public as an introduction to African history.' Asian and African Studies
