A Guyanese by birth and a Kenyan by citizenship, Ras Makonnen would still regard these two aspects of his life as accidents of history--his roots and destiny are in the continent of Africa.

This volume is a further contribution to that struggle. Makonnen's analysis of the pan-African movement starts in the former British Guiana (Guyana) in the early twenties, warms up to the North American scene where, as a young man,...
