Book Reviews of They Came Before Columbus: The African Presence in Ancient America

Book Review: An excellent tell all that dispells the myth of Columbus.
Summary: 5 Stars

This book should be text book material for young readers as well as accomplished historians. I didn't get to read it until I was in graduate school and it made me excited and eager to learn more about the untold truth of my African Ancestors. When I find a copy of this book it will be required reading for my children.
