African History: A Very Short Introduction by John Parker

3.0

This was an interesting little book. It was definitely interesting, but it was more of a historiography, or history of the study of African history, than an introduction to African history itself. I would have liked more chronology and meat in a history text, but as an historiographical (is that even a word?!) essay, it held my attention. Three stars.
