Africa And The Discovery Of America V1 (1920)

Africa and the Discovery of America is a historical book written by Leo Wiener and published in 1920. This book explores the possibility of Africans discovering America before Columbus. Wiener argues that there is evidence to suggest that African explorers may have reached the Americas as early as the 4th century. He examines the similarities between African and American cultures and languages, as well as ancient maps and artifacts that suggest contact between the two continents. This book is divided into two volumes, with the first volume focusing on the evidence for African exploration of the Americas, and the second volume delving into the possible consequences of this discovery. Overall, Africa and the Discovery of America is a fascinating exploration of an alternative history of the Americas, and provides a unique perspective on the early interactions between Africa and the New World.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
