Cover of Basil Davidson: Africa in History (ePUB)

The classic history of Africa from the green Sahara and the Iron Age through the 20th century.Basil Davidson’s Africa in History was a landmark in the restoration of African history. For centuries the myth had prevailed that Africa had no history prior to direct contact with European "civilization". This new edition of Basil Davidson’s book not only eradicated these myths, but takes account of much of the most recent scholarship about native African civilizations.
