A History of Southern Africa is a comprehensive textbook which covers the history of the sub-continent from prehistory through to the present day. Although the focus of the book is inevitably on the emergence of the modern state of South Africa, full attention is also paid to the histories of the neighbouring countries of Namibia, Botswana, Lesotho and Swaziland. Unlike many other histories of the region it concentrates on the history of the African peoples of Southern Africa, showing the variety of their political organizations and the full range of their economic activities both before and after the arrival of the white settlers.Shillington, Kevin is the author of 'History of Southern Africa' with ISBN 9780582585218 and ISBN 058258521X.
