John D. Hargreaves – författare

John Hargreaves examines how the British, French, Belgian, Spanish and Portuguese colonies in tropical Africa became independent in the postwar years, and in doing so transformed the international landscape. African demands for independence and colonial plans for reform - central to the story - are seen here in the wider context of changing international relationships.

The author of this work presents an informative description of the surrounding tribes together with a collection of Temne, Bulom and Susu vocabularies. The second volume represents a systematic account of African medicine, diseases, remedies and therapeutic plants.
