Africana: The Encyclopedia of the African & African American Experience
2nd edition (five volumes)
Oxford, $500 net
When the Africana encyclopedia first released in 1999, W.E.B. Du Bois’ dream became reality as the first encyclopedia portraying the “rich truth of black life” was published. This reality has been further enhanced and updated with over 1,000 new entries for a total of more than 4,000 articles. Biographies, chronologies, maps, photos, and tables create a wealth of knowledge now expanded into five incredible volumes. The ‘At a Glance’ section profiles 170 countries with quick summaries of places and events. This completes a reference work that should be in all public, academic, and high school libraries.
