... a real contribution to scholarship.
*Roland Oliver in the TLS*
The General History of Africa was launched in 1970, when an
International Scientific Committee of 39 scholars was formed to
oversee the writing and publication of a complete survey of the
African past, from pre-history to the present. The laudable aim of
the project was to break free from the straightjacket of
Eurocentrism, and to provide a history that reflected a range of
African views without imposing any set historical interpretation.
