Description
Summary:An indispensable reference tool for the research community in the Republic of Guinea (Conakry) and for the next generation of outside scholars, this edition offers an introductory narrative accounting of Guineas political and economic history, a chronology that spans the earliest known history of the area to the present day Republic of Guinea, more than dictionary entries covering the personalities and events that made contemporary Guinea, and an extensive bibliography of current publications.
