Description and Table of Contents
Description
First published in 1985. This monograph is from a series on African Studies and looks at the history of the Masallt Sultanate from 1870 to 1930. As literature on western Dar Fur is nearly non-existent and relevant travel accounts few, it is almost completely based on primary sources. The (Arabic) Mahdist Archives and (English) Condominium Archives kept at the Central Records Office, Khartoum, French and British Archives, and the Sudan Collection of the History Department in Bergen, Norway.
