About the Author:
Marq de Villiers and Sheila Hirtle
From Library Journal:
Ostensibly a visit to ancient empires, this book intertwines history with modern politics to paint a portrait of the entire continent of Africa. Replete with all those quirks and scandals that make history fun to read, it shows us how Africans find joy despite constant warfare and cruel rulers. We laugh, for instance, at the image of the hated Libyan army being chased out of town by a horde of Chadic civilians in minivan taxis. Not just a travelog like Pam Ascanio's White Men Don't Have Juju (Noble, 1992), this superb distillation of sociocultural and recent political events proves to be both entertaining and informative. Award-winning journalist de Villiers grew up in South Africa. A good basic book for those who want insight into Africa's complex civilization; highly recommended.?Louise F.
