This book is essential for anyone interested in the history of childhood and generational dynamics in Africa. This synthesis of a diverse and complex literature makes a strong case for the significance of age and generation as an analytic framework for African history. Duff has done a superb job of humanising the experiences of children by using fascinating, carefully selected case studies. It is both highly sophisticated and extremely accessible. Clive Glaser, University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa This book balances an approachable historical overview with conceptual analysis of age, gender, and generation. Featuring insightful and diverse case studies drawn from oral traditions, memoirs, interdisciplinary scholarship, and other literature, Duffs parallel discussion of ideologies and experiences of childhood and youth demonstrates why Africa matters to these debates.
