About the Book
Africa Since 1800 by Roland Oliver is a comprehensive and authoritative historical study that examines Africa’s political, social, and economic transformations from the nineteenth century onward. Recognized as a foundational academic work, the book provides a structured and in-depth analysis of colonial expansion, resistance movements, nationalism, and the emergence of independent African states.

Its standard academic size (21 x 14 cm) makes it suitable for research libraries, university coursework, and serious collectors of historical works.
