About the Author:
Robert S. Smith was senior lecturer and professor of history at the Universities of Ibadan and Lagos, and the Obafemi Awolowo University, the three longest-established universities in the Yoruba-speaking part of Nigeria. He is author of many works, including Warfare and Diplomacy in Pre-colonial West Africa and The Lagos Consulate, and is co-author with Professor J.F.A. Ajayi of Yoruba Warfare in the Nineteenth Century.
Review:
"An elegant and clear introduction to this complex history. It is based on a sound scholarly knowledge of the literature as well as the oral history—which is particularly rich for the Yoruba. It would be central to any course on Nigerian history . . . and stands in its own right as a scholarly work.”—Michael Crowder, Amherst College
