Overview"This book commences by painting an image of Africa. We get introduced to physical features, the endowments, and go on to provide a brief historical perspective of Africa, showing how Africa served as the first home of the human species. The book then takes us through another epoch of Africa's self-consciousness (Pan-Africanism) in the middle of the 20th century: the time when Africa had been greatly subjected to imperialism and colonialism, which plunged it into great destitution. To say the least, this book is a statement of hope for Africa. Besides the historical accounts, the book takes time to underline the facts that mankind's life has a beginning and an end. In between the two ends, there are thousands of ups and downs. Today Africa is working hard to emancipate itself socially, economically, politically, culturally, and psychologically. According to the Author, these are not daydreams; they are visions conceived in very clear minds, conscious of the fact that the past should be left to the past and now the focus should be on what lies ahead. Africa is ambitious to get to the envisioned ""world economic level of emancipation i.e. to its 'New-Canaan.'"" No doubt, it can be done, and Africa wishes to do it because it has the will, the Vision, natural and human resources potential and enough reserved energy to get there sooner rather than later. This book illustrates the origins of the continent, its current location, and where its destination is envisaged to be."
