Kiunangi: Or Story And History From Central Africa is a book written by Arthur Cornwallis Madan and published in 1887. The book is a collection of stories and historical accounts from Central Africa, specifically the region that is now known as Zambia. The book is divided into two parts. The first part is a collection of stories that Madan heard from local people during his travels in the region. These stories include tales of mythical creatures, heroic deeds, and supernatural events. Madan also includes his own observations and descriptions of the people and places he encountered during his travels. The second part of the book is a historical account of the region, beginning with the arrival of the first European explorers and traders in the 16th century. Madan describes the impact of European colonization on the region, including the slave trade and the establishment of British colonial rule. He also provides detailed accounts of the various tribes and kingdoms that existed in the region before European contact. Overall, Kiunangi: Or Story And History From Central Africa provides a unique perspective on the history and culture of Central Africa in the late 19th century. Madan's firsthand accounts and the stories he collected from local people offer a glimpse into a world that is now largely lost to history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
