Review title: Shallow overview
Product review: O'Ballance's book reads like a very long newspaper account. Heavy on "who" "what" and "when", this text never offers the reader any explanation of "why" anything has happened in the Sudan. The civil war in the Sudan is a result of a number of forces, not the least of which are colonial rule, economic strains, and ethnic and religious tensions. O'Ballance's book does justice to none of these factors. Historians often get annoyed with journalists because they don't take history into account. This book is a prime example of that failing.
