William Ofori Atta, Nnambi Azikiwe, J.B. Danquah and the “Grilling” of W.E.F. Ward of Achimota in 1935
In December 1932 J. B. Danquah identified five stages or “ages” in the coastal political history, or the “national history,” of the Gold Coast. This paper may be described as a temporary departure from a preoccupation with “Ages” two, three, and four (1867-1930) and a tentative entry into the study of the fifth: Danquah's post-1930 “Age of Enlightenment.” What follows therefore is more of a shift in time than of space and focus—the area and arena…

Gold coasters overseas, 1880–1919
One effect of the British conquest of the Gold Coast was an acceleration in the exodus of members of Euro‐African families from the coastal townships to the British West African empire and to the imperial metropole. Using Gold Coast sources, in the main, to identify these expatriates and to ascertain the nature and purpose of their migration overseas, the article suggests that while the exodus may be interpreted as a nationalist response to colon…

Impeachable Source? On the Use of the Second Edition of Reindorf's History as a Primary Source for the Study of Ghanaian History - II
Here Reindorf described the events leading to the defeat and death of MacCarthy. Unlike Ellis, his account differed substantially -- both in detail and emphasis -- from earlier (mostly British) ones. The panegyric verse with which he closed the chapter was, however, quite typical of the Fante-Wesleyan response to this Governor. With the exception of a few details (and, of course, the vernacular) this chapter is fairly and fully reproduced, includ…
Impeachable Source? On the Use of the Second Edition of Reindorf's History as a Primary Source for the Study of Ghanaian History - I
“The matter in the first Edition has not undergone any radical change with the exception of a few alterations here and there ... The Rev. Carl Christian Reindorf began his research into the history of the Gold Coast and Asante in the early 1860s. His decision to collect and record traditions appears to have been stimulated by the death in 1860 of his grandmother and by the Basel Mission which in 1864 under the direction of J.G. Christaller entere…
