A History of the Arabs in the Sudan: and Some Account of the People who preceded them and of the Tribes inhabiting Dárfr

Abstract

THE two volumes before us present the result of Mr. MacMichael's investigations in the Northern Sudan carried on for nearly twenty years, and they may be regarded as the logical continuation of his earlier work (published in 1912) on the Arabs of Kordofan. The present work deals with all those Sudanese tribes in which Arab blood preponderates, or at least warrants the popular conception of them as Arabs.

A History of the Arabs in the Sudan: and Some Account of the People who preceded them and of the Tribes inhabiting Dárfr.

By H. A. MacMichael. Vol. 1. Pp. xxii + 347. Vol. 2. Pp. viii + 488. (Cambridge: At the University Press, 1922.) 2 vols. 90s. net.
