Review:
"Essential reading for an understanding of modern-day Africa" -- The New York Times Book Review "A rare overview of the wild and frequently unreported developments on the world's second-largest continent... an intelligent and powerful argument for sanity and humanity." -- The Philadelphia Inquirer "A primer for all of us who don't know enough about the Dark Continent...a fascinating and important book" -- Playboy "A thoroughly clear-sighted, honest book that provides a political and social survey of the 46 countries of sub-Sahara Africa. -- Business Week
From the Back Cover:
The Africans is an extraordinary combination of analysis and adventure. Part travelogue, part contemporary history, it is a portrait of a continent that sometimes seems hell-bent on destroying itself, and of people who are as courageous as they are long-suffering.
