Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Flooding of the Sahara: An Account of the Proposed Plan for Opening Central Africa to Commerce and Civilization From the North West Coast, With a Description of Soudan and Western Sahara, and Notes on Ancient Manuscripts, &C During fifteen hundred years Africa seems to have been almost forgotten by the civilized nations of Europe, for it was not until the fifteenth century, the golden age of discovery, that its general outline was ascertained. But its interior remained a blank until the middle of the present Century; it has now been traversed in various directions both north and south of the equator, immense lakes and mountains have been discovered, great rivers have been traced to their sources, and the climate of the north and south and the interior has been found to be well suited for the habitation of man. Africa is three times the size of Europe, with a population of nearly two hundred millions, and natural resources equal to those of any other part of the earth. The importance of holding commercial intercourse with its interior has been acknowledged in all ages. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Sub Saharan Africa written by Gregory H. Maddox and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2006-03-24 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A wealth of information and analysis on the environmental forces that have helped shaped the cultures of the African continent. A scholarly reference work that will also appeal to the general reader, Sub-Saharan Africa sets the story of the African environment within the context of geological time and shows how the continent's often harsh conditions prompted humans to develop unique skills in agriculture, animal husbandry, and environmental management. Part of ABC-CLIO's Nature and Human Societies series, this book enables readers to better grasp the extent of humanity's effect on our world. Of particular interest are the book's sections dealing with the impact of the Biafran famine of the 1960s, the Sahelian drought of the 1970s, population growth, and the ongoing challenges of war and HIV/AIDS. Crucially, the book also shows how, despite their relative poverty, many African states have coped admirably with rapid urbanization and have developed world-class conservation and sustainability programs in order to protect and harness some of the most endangered species in the world.
