A Very Good copy of this scholarly compilation of studies on Kongo culture and history and its place in the African diaspora.  Interior is crisp and bright, with a little wear to the wraps, which show some handling and marks to the edges.  

This volume allows leading scholars of Kongo history, anthropology, linguistics, archaeology, and art to examine the history of Kongo peoples from the fifteenth century through today.  These essays probe the historical interactions between the Kongolese and the Atlantic world, Kongo presence and influence in the United States, and Kongo inspired artistic expression in contemporary art."
