Description
A multidisciplinary study of African pasts: method, content, ethics and philosophy come together in one place. African Histories gives readers a rich understanding of Africa's complex history through a wide variety of sources while exposing them to the African voice.
The text offers examples of how scholars have, over the past 60 years, demonstrated Africa's detailed history.
