Simon & Schuster Fortunes of Africa: A 5,000 Year History of Wealth, Greed and Endeavour

It's the best book written on African continent. Martin Meredith had written this book so good and had researched a lot . Explosive content huge amount of information on how this continent is exploited by Europeans .The different regions and their different groups of people has a great role in the Historical Saga . Bought it for Rs 599 and it's worth.

Libro splendido

pouco aberto

Really fascinating account of African history from Egypt to the start of the 21st century. 675 pages excluding notes, index etc divided into chapters averaging 7 or 8 pages each to deal with different events in different countries. Sufficient depth to make the accounts interesting without the book having to spill over into a dozen volumes. A really interesting read, it achieves the task of providing an overview of the history of a continent in an engaging narrative. Highly recommended.
