Judith A. Byfield, Carolyn A. Brown, Timothy Parsons, Ahmad Alawad Sikainga — 2015

This volume offers a fresh perspective on Africa's central role in the Allied victory in World War II. Its detailed case studies, from all parts of Africa, enable us to understand how African communities sustained the Allied war effort and how they were transformed in the process. Together, the chapters provide a continent-wide perspective.
