The care with which the editor solicited and organized the readings has resulted in a seamless work in which the writing styles are perfectly matched and create a sense of consistency and continuity. It is a well-written and extremely readable book that will engage students." --Devethia Guillory, Prairie View A&M University "Finally, a textbook that takes an African perspective on the most important historical events of recent centuries. Organized chronologically to provide students with a sense of narrative, this clearly written text addresses multiple crucial themes that, for better or worse, have impacted Africa immensely since 1500. Its geographical breadth illuminates the diverse experiences of different populations in Africa. Most impressively, to appeal to students, the authors persistently provide context whenever they introduce primary sources or historiographical questions." --John C. Corbally, Stanford University
