The book provides a detailed account of the history and development of the city of Lagos in Nigeria, from its early days as a small fishing village to its current status as a bustling metropolis. The author explores the various political, economic, social, and cultural factors that have shaped the city over the centuries, including the impact of colonialism, slavery, and the transatlantic slave trade. The book also delves into the city's rich cultural heritage, including its music, art, and literature, and highlights the challenges that the city has faced in recent years, such as urbanization, poverty, and environmental degradation. Overall, The Story Of An African City offers a fascinating insight into the history and culture of Lagos, and provides a valuable contribution to the study of African urbanism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
