Entries are very lengthy, detailed, and readable. Appendixes list
all members of government by post from 1956 to 1991, named
political factions, and the membership of the 1969 Supreme
Revolutionary Council. Perhaps the most valuable adjunct to the
dictionary is the lengthy multilingual bibliography, covering
general works, politics, history, society, science, and economy and
culture. Libraries holding the earlier edition will want to acquire
this solid contribution to African studies resources.
