Based on substantial new research from primary sources and
archives, this accessible interpretative history of West Central
Africa from earliest times to 1852 gives comprehensive and in-depth
coverage of the region. With equal focus given to both internal
histories or inter-state interactions and external dynamics and
relationships, this study represents an original approach to
regional histories which goes beyond the existing scholarship on
the area. By contextualising and expanding its range, to include
treatment of the Portuguese colony of Angola, John K. Thornton
provides new understandings of significant events, people, and
inter-regional interactions which aid the grounding of the history
of West Central Africa within a broader context. A valuable
resource to students and scholars of African history.
