A Brief History of Togo takes readers on a fascinating journey through the rich and diverse history of this small yet culturally vibrant West African nation. From the ancient settlements of indigenous groups and the rise of powerful kingdoms like the Ewe and Kabye to its role in regional trade networks, this book provides a concise yet comprehensive look at Togo's evolution.

Explore the impact of European contact, the era of the transatlantic slave trade, and Togo's period as a German colony before coming under French control after World War I. Delve into the nation's struggle for independence in 1960, the challenges of post-colonial governance, and its path toward political and economic stability. Whether you're a history enthusiast, a traveler, or simply curious about this land of diverse cultures, scenic landscapes, and deep traditions, A Brief History of Togo offers an engaging and accessible account of its remarkable past and enduring resilience.
