Recenzii

“The women’s war of 1929: Gender and Violence inColonial Nigeria … provides one of the most detailed and multidimensionalaccounts of the circumstances that led to those events and their impact on theAfrican-Colonial encounter. … The Women’s War of 1929 makes a significantcontribution to studies of African women, gender, colonialism, and colonialviolence. Matera, Bastian, and Kent retell a familiar story with new sourcesand insights, and present perspectives that enrich our knowledge of thisremarkable event.” (Saheed Aderinto, African Studies Review, Vol. 58 (3), December,2015)
"If the subject matter is familiar, the approach adopted here is nevertheless original. The book brings metropole and colony together by combining the expertise of two historians of Britain, Marc Matera and Susan Kingsley Kent with that of an anthropologist of Africa, Misty L. Bastian." - Journal of Twentieth Century British History
