London:: Oxford University Press,, 1961.. Very good in very good dust jacket (gift inscription on front endpaper, some toning to both the pages and the dj). First printing. From the introduction: "The history of Africa is a neglected subject, not only because the evidence is thin, but also because such a variety of skills is necessary to master what evidence there is. The unwritten lore of pre-colonial times has to be recovered from peoples speaking some six or seven hundred languages. Then there is the archaeological approach which requires as many skills as the historical." Includes essays on the Nile River valley, Carthage, the kingdom of Axum, the Arab conquests in the 7th and 11th centuries, the kingdoms of Sudan, Zimbabwe, and more. Maps, vii, 103 pp plus 8 plates on glossy paper.
