Reviews

Relying largely on previously unexploited sources, especially in Israel, this is a well-informed, richly documented, and theoretically and conceptually grounded and nuanced analysis of Israeli relations with Nigerian regional power blocs in the 1950s and 1960s. --AYODEJI OLUKOJU, University Distinguished Professor of History, University of Lagos, Nigeria
