A comprehensive evaluation of how to read African history. Writing
African History is an essential work for anyone who wants to write,
or even seriously read, African history. It will replace Daniel
McCall's classic Africa in Time Perspective as the introduction to
African history for the next generation and as a reference for
professional historians, interested readers, and anyone who wants
to understand how African history is written. Africa in Time
Perspective was written in the 1960s, when African history was a
new field of research. This new book reflects the development of
African history since then. It opens with a comprehensive
introduction by Daniel McCall, followed by a chapter by the editor
explainingwhat African history is [and is not] in the context of
historical theory and the development of historical narrative, the
humanities, and social sciences. The first half of the book focuses
on sources of historical data while thesecond half examines
different perspectives on history. The editor's final chapter
explains how to combine various sorts of evidence into a coherent
account of African history. Writing African History will become the
most important guide to African history for the 21st century.

Have you ever heard of a pirate so small he could swim in a bowl of
soup, ride on the back of a small dog, and fly on the wings of a
parrot? A man so small he can sneak beneath the noses of regular
folks, gaining advantage while facing unusual dangers most of us
can easily handle? Well, this is the remarkable tale of such a
sorry soul. A man damned to walk the earth in search of the cure
which will bring him back to his full size. Along the way, he
learns life lessons to make him a better, more compassionate man.
It's a story of adventure, love, fantasy, and mystery.
