Negative Positive
Title: Valuable resource, but overwhelms the reader with details
Review: This is a valuable resource for people interested in the history of Africa. Credible information from a master historian. Work was a little too ambitious. The author tried to cover too much information in a concise volume. Some sections are confusing and difficult to follow. Overall, a good book. Not for a novice in history, but for people with an extensive background on the topic. His book on the Dreyfus Affair was phenomenal. One of the best books Ive ever read. This book pales a little in comparison.
