Essays on the Yoruba

The Yoruba Historical Research Scheme was conceived in 1956 under the sponsorship of the Western Region of Nigeria Government with the assigned task of writing a full and authoritative history of the Yoruba peoples. The first fruits of this commendable project, so long awaited, are just now appearing in the form of the new book Sources of Yoruba History, edited by the director of the scheme and noted historian, Dr. S. 0. Biobaku. For this reason, if for no other, one must greet the publication of this book with enthusiasm.
