Abstract

The names of Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King, and Barack Obama are known to everyone for their status as winners of the Nobel Peace Prize, but how many people could identify the likes of Albert Luthuli or Wangari Maathi, among others? Gary Wilson reviews Africa’s Peacemakers, a collection of essays focusing on the most significant contributions to peace across the continent. This clear, concise, and useful bibliographical work will be of special interest to those engaged within international affairs, history or peace studies, although its accessible style also makes it a worthwhile read for the general reader with a passing interest in such matters.
