Knowledge of ancient Africans,
By D. E. White "chipolte blanco" (Pa. United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pillars in Ethiopian History Vol. I: William Leo Hansberry African History Notebook (Paperback)
Ever heard of William Leo Hansberry? Well I didn't either. He had an amazing knowledge of the ancient Africans and the opinions of other ancients of those Africans. Great Book for background knowledge of Africans.
