The Special Collections Book of the Week this week is:

African Christianity: an African story edited by Ogbu U Kalu.

From the preface: “The effort in this book is ideologically-driven: to build up a group of African Church historians who will tell the story as an African story by intentionally privileging the patterns of African agency without neglecting the roles of various missionary bodies. The effort is to identify the major themes or story lines in African Christianity and comment on them in such a manner as to elicit new research approaches before a general text could emerge.”
