The story of an early pioneer in the field of African Studies is featured in this illuminating biography. In the late 1940s, Thomas Hodgkin set out- through his travels and writings- to overcome the false visions of African history and independence propagated under the colonial agenda, yet his interests were not restricted to Africa. A longtime Marxist shaped by the colonial effects on Palestine and Vietnam, Hodgkin was an unconventional scholar, sent all over the world to witness and document revolution in action.
