E-Books →The Forgotten Era Nigeria Before British Rule

We know what the British did to Nigeria. But what do we know about Nigeria before the British came?
In this groundbreaking work, acclaimed British-Nigerian historian Max Siollun peels back the layers of colonial myth to unveil a Nigeria rich in complexity, drama, and achievement long before the British arrived to colonise it.
Far from being part of a "dark continent," pre-colonial Nigeria had bustling cities, democratic institutions, intellectual hubs, powerful empires, and unforgettable characters. Offering vivid storytelling, The Forgotten Era:
* Reframes Nigerian history on its own terms - not through a European lens
* Explores democratic councils, sophisticated legal systems, and the complex governance of kingdoms
* Is a vital read for young Nigerians and African descendants worldwide seeking a deeper connection to their heritage beyond colonisation
* Makes a perfect Companion to Empireland and Black and British: If you've read David Olusoga or Sathnam Sanghera, this is the next book for you
Rediscover the legacy. Reclaim the pride.
The Forgotten Era isn't just a history book - it's a homecoming.
