"... it is worth saluting Berghahn, the publisher that produces the Cameroon Studies series. This undertaking, which now runs to five volumes (with more on the way) is a wonderful resource for English-speaking students of Cameroonian history. Not only are these books well produced with plentiful illustrations, but they are also reasonably priced. They will form some of the canonical texts for Camerooon studies for years to come, and Cameroonists are very lucky to have such a supportive publisher... Cameroonists now have a whole group of newly available primary sources, elegantly set in context and ready for interpretation." African Affairs
