Reviews
"[A] landmark and user-friendly book. . . . Getz's book is very useful—vital, even—in charting a course."
-- Toby Green Times Higher Education
"A rich array of potential resources and activities. . . . Getz's expertise in African history is clear. . . . Well organized, and thought-provoking."
-- Holly E. Marcolina World History Connected
"A Primer for Teaching African History is lucid, the chapters are not overly long, and is pleasantly easy to read. In all conceivable ways, this book, like the few that came before it, is of great epistemological and pedagogical relevance and is thus useful for both new and established teachers of African history, African studies, and world history because it exposes them to great ideas and strategies for enhancing teaching skills."
-- Kwaku Nti Journal of Global South Studies
