The Africans

The Africans

by David Lamb

  • CULTURAL PORTRAIT
  • 1987
  • PAPER
  • 371 PAGES

In these 17 well written essays, news correspondent Lamb ranges throughout Africa, creating an insightful portrait of the land and especially its people. This now-classic book is a wide-ranging political and social survey of the continent, banned in a number of countries -- and as interesting today as when it was first published in 1984.  (AFR22, $19.95)
