Black Man of the Nile

Has become a favored title of mine. Enjoying the read very much!

Purchased this book a few weeks ago. I have basically finished the book, just finishing up the conclusion, which should be done within the next couple of hours. Dr. Ben-Jochannan packaged a LOT of factual information that I feel is VITAL to re-awakening of the people of African decent consciously and spiritually, thus reconnecting us not only the continent of Alkebulan, but it's people the world over. It is my personal belief that, Self knowledge is the basis of True knowledge, or put another way, Know Thy Self! And with that, learn to Trust and Respect Thy Self!This book has a lot of pictures and illustrations through out. The quality of these illustrations vary from poor to excellent quality, but the information that you need is definitely there and this to me is the most important aspect of the book.I would not recommend this book to someone just beginning to discover Knowledge of Self. However, after some time of becoming enlighten, I would VERY MUCH suggest that you add this add this book to your library. This will allow for you to INNERSTAND this book, vesus understanding this book.I suggest that when you read this book, READ THE ENTIRE BOOK, minus the Select Bibliography section. Only bother with this section when looking for possibly other books of interest.This book is definitely a MUST read if you are on a path of self discovery. This IS NOT a Black History book, rather it is a book about the History of Alkebulan and it's People and ALL of their descendents the world over.Enslavement of the African wasn't JUST restricted or confined to the United States of America. But I do believe that the African in the Americas can begin the Re-awakening of ALL the PEOPLE of Alkebulan the world over. But WE must first be awakened from a DEEP sleep, for it is but a dream, this reality WE live in.As a child I had HUNDREDS of questions about his-story, religion (also his-story) and self that the adults in my community, inclusive of adults I interacted with in both the public and religious school centers, SIMPLY COULD OR WOULD NOT answer. And now that I can factually answer those questions for self, those same adults from my childhood and their children, WILL NOT even attempt hold any sort religious or history conversation with me. In fact, we can talk about anything BUT those two areas. Every now and again, I may get a question about Christopher Columbus or Abraham Lincoln, but that's it! And I get it. I have a major in psychology and a minor in sociology. I get it!If you've made it this far, it's probably okay to get the book. LOL! At any rate, I suggest it!

I love the scholarship

This was a very detailed classic piece of literature. I could not simply put this book down at all. Dr. Yosef Ben Jochannan is truly one of the best to ever speak about Africa(Alkebulan)ancient history connected to the men of darn skin misnomered black man,negro or whatever colonized name they give us these days. Learning about Ta-Merry and Ta-Nehesi and various other places and and dark skinned people contributions to them with 100% facts to back up all accounts is priceless. And also this book leads you to do research on your on and also lead you to other great books. Hands down this book put to the rest the garbage they teach in schools about how the people looked in ancient Egypt(Ta-Merry)from Pharoahs all the way to the Priest to the common people.We were Kings and Queens and still are to this day.

This is a classic, but it could use an updated look. Some of the pages are faded and washed out. Within the pages there are reprinted newspaper articles that are barely legible. This is my 3rd copy from this publisher and they've all been lIke that. So much information should be on bigger pages i.e. text book size. Those are my complaints but those are aesthetics the information is priceless. Put to bed a lot of pseudo information floating around on the internet.

Eye did not get it yet, but the Ancestor Grand Master Teacher Dr. Ben works are always top notch and You can use this and His other works to see the powerful information about the Nile Valley Civilization.

I was surprised when I got the book. I didn't know it was thick. I thought it would be another then book, but it wasn't. I just read the first few pages and was going to keep going when I remember I was finishing another book. :) it is full of information

This is an excellent book for the information. But whoever is doing the reprints need to step the type style and pictorial examples way up. The type style is small and makes poor use of page space...some of the text on picture examples are dithered/faded, the black and white photos are sometimes so badly presented that you can't even see the full example.This is 2018 and I hope someone will take the time to update this book with modern photograph and layout whilst keeping the information exactly accurate.

A stalwart historian of Nile civilisation. Solid knowledge and outstanding scholarship.

A must read for everyone. Very well written history

important for every african to read

I listened to Dr Ben's lectures and this book is bringing all this lectures together a very good book about Nile Valley Civilization

Master piece this information is what they dont want you see
