Historical dictionary of Angola

"This historical dictionary features a detailed chronology of the significant events of Angola over the past several centuries; an extensive list of acronyms and abbreviations in both English and Portuguese; maps; and an introductory essay explaining the richness of the land, its early history, and the current political, social, and economic conditions of its people. More than 500 entries profile the significant people, places, and events of Angola, as well as the political institutions and the economic and social achievements important to understanding the country's history. Three appendixes provide changes to Angolan place names, a listing of the members of Angola's government as of September 2003, and an overview of the country's oil production. A comprehensive bibliography concludes and complements this dictionary with a selection of older works but an emphasis on those published after 1990, along with various Internet sources, private materials, newspapers, and journals."--BOOK JACKET.
