3.0 out of 5 stars Well-written and thought-provoking, May 13, 2000
This review is from: Africa and Africans as Seen by Classical Writers (William Leo Hansberry African History Notebook) (Paperback)
Basically a survey of classical writings on Africa, this book has been superceded by later, more comprehensive works, but is worth a look as one of the founding works of the study of African history and culture. Nice index too.
