The Rise of British West Africa (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780714616674)

First Published in 1967. Herodotus claims that the earliest voyage for exploring Africa was made by an African, Pharaoh Necho in B.C. 600. This title sets out to assess this claim and explore the future explorations with reference to, arguably, the most memorable voyage by Hanno of Carthage in B.C. 450. George spans a range of sources going as far as 1827 to produce an extensive study on the rise of British West Africa.
