ISBN: 9780195157314 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. During the heyday of camel caravan traffic--from the eighth century CE arrival of Islam in North Africa to the early twentieth-century building of European colonial railroads that linked the Sudan with the Atlantic--the Sahara was one of the world's great commercial highways, bringing gold, slaves, and other commodities northward and sending both manufactured goods and Mediterranean culture southward into the Sudan.

Middlemen of the Cameroons Rivers: The Duala and Their Hinterland, C.1600-C.1960
ISBN: 9780521562287 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is about the Duala "middlemen," who functioned as intermediaries between Europeans and their own hinterland for over three hundred years. Originally traders in ivory, slaves and palm products, they then became colonial-era cocoa planters, and finally took a leading role in anti-colonial politics. One of their lasting advantages was European education, which they used to develop ideas about their ethnicity and its historical basis. The authors criticize these local beliefs about the past but indicate what they reveal about power and identity in this region and elsewhere in Africa.
