A new, bright and brilliant, jam-packed, Black History series- certainly one of the best we've seen at Letterbox Library. This book looks at the great civilisations of the African continent (including Ta-Seti and ancient Egypt, the empire of Mali and the kingdom of Benin) and the people within these complex societies. Written by a UK teacher and member of the Black and Asian Studies Association. 'Fantastic! It has just the right balance between text, pictures and sources' (Morgan, aged 15, LL reviewer). Age 10-14, Paperback 48pp.
