"This book, African Americans in Nkrumah's Ghana provides a clear and accessible guide to the study of Pan- Africanism in the context of the role of Black Americans in the development of Africa. Demonstrating the application of archival materials and oral tradition techniques across a broad sweep disciplines, this volume is essential to all those engaged in the study of Africa and the African Diaspora; it is invaluable to researchers, teachers, policy-makers on African Affairs, and all those interested in the future of Africa and peoples of African descent in the New World. There is no standard work covering this important historical period in African and African American history that is comparable." —Jacob U'Mofe Gordon, Ph.D Professor Emeritus, University of Kansas, and Kwame Nkrumah Endowed Chair, University of Ghana, 2012-2015.
