First Published in 1979. This is a collection of twelve lectures, essays and articles with the aim of revealing some of the too many aspects of the African past yet to be explored or sufficiently developed. Another aim was to attempt new perspectives and interpretations of the more familiar aspects. The themes—exploration, Western-style education, the reaction of Africans to the activities of Christian missions, and the thought-pattern and modernity aspirations of the educated elite—have the common denominator of Euro-African relations. Collectively the themes are related historiographic concerns and methods and, as products of a single mind, bear the stamp of one style of thought.
E. A. Ayandele Professor of History and Vice-Chancellor, University of Calabar.
