Originally published in 1897 this was one of the rarest early
monographs on this noble breed. The illustrated contents include:
Early History of the Irish Greyhound - The Wolf Hunting Greyhound -
The Nineteenth Century Claimant - Descent of the Modern Wolfdog -
Hounds and Hunting in Ancient Ireland, etc. Many of the earliest
dog books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before,
are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Home Farm
Books are republishing many of these classic works in affordable,
high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
This book provides a comprehensive narrative history of Liberia's
first civil war, from its origins in the 1980s right through the
conflict and up to the peace agreement and conclusion of
hostilities in 1997. The first Liberian Civil War was one of
Africa's most devastating conflicts, claiming the lives of more
than 200,000 Liberians, and sending shockwaves across the world.
Drawing on a wide range of local and international sources, the
book traces the background of the war and its long-term and
immediate causes, before analysing the detail of the unfolding
conflict, the eventual ceasefire, peace agreement and subsequent
elections. In particular, the book shines a light on hitherto
unseen first-hand Roman Catholic indigenous and missionary sources,
which offer a rare intimacy to the analysis. Detailing the impact
of Liberia's individual warlords and peacemakers, the book also
explains the roles played by non-governmental agencies, national,
regional and international actors, by the UN, ECOWAS and the
Organisation of African Unity, and by nations with special
interests and influence, such as the USA and other West African
states. This book's detailed narrative analysis of the Liberian
conflict will be an important read for anyone with an interest in
the Liberian conflict, including researchers within African
studies, political science, contemporary history, international
relations, and peace and conflict studies.
