A History of the Sudan by Pm Holt
A History of the Sudan by Martin Daly and PM Holt, sixth edition, has been fully revised and updated and covers the most recent developments that have occurred in Sudan over the last nine years, including the crisis in Darfur. The most notable developments that this text covers includes the decades-long civil war in the South (with the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement in January 2005); the emergence of the Sudan as an oil-producer and exporter, and its resulting higher profile in global economic affairs, notably as a partner of China; the emergence of al-Qaeda, the relations of Sudanese authorities with Ossama bin Laden (whose headquarters were in the Sudan in the 1990s), and the Sudanese government's complicated relations with the West. This text is key introductory reading for any student of North Africa.P.M.Holt is Professor Emeritus of the History of the Near East, University of London.
Martin Daly is head of the Department of Humanities and Social Science, Kettering University, USA. He has recently published Darfurs Sorrow: A History of Destruction and Genocide with CUP.
