Palm oil, cocoa, and timber: West Africa's fields and forests fed a growing trade. Dudgeon surveys the agricultural and forest products of Sierra Leone, the Gold Coast, Ashanti, and Nigeria, region by region. A colonial-era economic geography of crops, land, and export. A detailed record of what grew where, and what it was worth.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
