Ghana, the former British colony of the Gold Coast, is historically
known for being the first country to the south of the Sahara to
attain political independence from colonial rule. It is known for
its exports of cocoa and a variety of minerals, especially gold,
and it is now an oil exporting country. But Ghana's importance to
the African continent is not only seen in its natural resources or
its potential to expand its agricultural output. Rather the
nation's political history of nationalism, the history of military
engagement in politics, record of economic depression and the
ability to rise from the ashes of political and economic decay is
the most unique character of the country. This fourth edition of
Historical Dictionary of Ghana covers its history through a
chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive
bibliography. The dictionary section has over 900 hundred
cross-referenced entries on important personalities, politics,
economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an
excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone
wanting to know more about Ghana.
