African Glory: The Story of Vanished Negro CivilizationsBlack Classic Press, 1986 - 211 páginas First published in 1954, a time when few books on African history were written from an African perspective. An intimate history of Africa and its ancient civilizations, the book opposed the stereotyped and often racist histories of Africa. Today, a half century after its initial publication, African Glory still provides a vivid and dynamic connection to the African past. |
