History of the Gold Coast and Asante

This seminal work by Rev. Carl Christian Reindorf offers a comprehensive account of the history of the Gold Coast (modern-day Ghana) and the Asante people, covering a period from approximately 1500 to 1860. Drawing from oral traditions and historical facts, Reindorf provides detailed narratives on the social, political, and cultural developments of the region. Originally completed in 1889 and published in 1895, this book is considered a pioneering effort in documenting African history from an indigenous perspective.
