Gilgamesh: A New English Version
from Free Press
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:

This edition is far, far superior to the other versions that are mere translations. When my 9th-grade son started reading this, after having read the first part of his assignment from another version, he was so much more impressed with this one. The other book barely made sense to him. This version... more info

Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears: A West African Tale
from Diane Pub Co

Customer Review:

This is a great cumulative story, filled with appropriate sound effects for every animal mentioned.
It does get a little long (reciting long lists of animals will do that), so it might not be best for little-little ones who cannot sit through it.
One thing to note is that this book does... more info

One of the best books I've ever read. I am still trying to understand why it has been banned in so many countries.

Of Water And Spirit
from Tarcher

Customer Review:

This book is a transformative agent that releases the Western mind of all false concepts of spirituality and the spiritual world. I highly recommend this book. Recognize that you will not be the same after completing this journey in the form of literature. Bless!

Ousmane builds a world on a grand scale. In this fictional account of the 1947-1948 strike on the Dakar-Niger Railroad, Ousmane attempts to cover the whole strike. He creates the leaders, the followers and the imperialists. From the ends of the line in Bamako and Dakar to every city in between,... more info

Sundiata: An Epic of Old Mali , Longman African Writers Series (Longman African Classics)
from Longman

Customer Review:

This is a great read, and I would encourage anyone who is interested about African oral history, to read Sundiata. It reflects the rich oral tradion that so greatly defines African culture. This is an epic about a cripple who becomes an Emperor (to put very simply). A great Hero Story.

The Palm-Wine Drinkard and My Life in the Bush of Ghosts
from Grove Press
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:

It's strange to read a book that you wished you had read years earlier. If I had read this book 20 years earlier, there would've been so many times I would've reflected on it.

Africa Bible Commentary: A One-Volume Commentary Written by 70 African Scholars
from Zondervan
Price: $26.39

Customer Review:

This commentary has been very helpful to our African church leaders and overseas missionary partners working in Africa. This is the book they request we bring on our annual visits, so we know they are using it. It's the first of it's kind - the ABC is not a critical, academic, verse-by-verse... more info

The Science of the Dogon: Decoding the African Mystery Tradition
from Inner Traditions
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:

This was a tough little book for me to read. If one were a student of linguistics or ancient religions I expect they would love this book. I, being neither, had difficulty getting through the 194 pages. I don't know what I expected when I purchased the book; maybe another "Sirius Mystery" or "Orion... more info
