From the Department of History at Bowling Green State University: Dr. Apollos O. Nwauwa has recently published an anthology on Nigeria’s Aro Confederacy and its history, entitled “The Aro Confederacy: State Formation, Chronology, and Historiography”.

This work creatively reexamines the chronology of the Aro Confederacy. It correlates this confederacy to other similar state formation models in Africa and establishes a chronology for the powerful 17th-century Confederacy, which exerted immense influence in what is today Nigeria.

This book is an invaluable resource for research on Aro studies.

Dr. Nwauwa is a Professor of History and Africana Studies at Bowling Green State University. His teaching and research focus on modern Africa, especially colonial, post-colonial, intellectual and diaspora history. 

“The Aro Confederacy” is now available on Amazon and at GoldlineAndJacobs.com!
