Volume 1: The West African Middle Ages challenges entrenched Eurocentric narratives by presenting an alternative view of African history, focusing on the remarkable empires of Ghana, Mali, and Songhai. These civilizations thrived on abundant gold resources and established robust trade networks spanning the Sahara Desert. They were trailblazers in governance, education, and architecture, epitomized by the prestigious university in Timbuktu. This volume provides a nuanced perspective on a vibrant era of African history often marginalized in conventional curriculums.
