enlightening
As an African in South Africa, I was most delighted to trace the history of African civilizations and its origins. Indeed the book will appeal to all races and is most relevant to all races: it attempts to expalin the origin of various races and religions that exist today and their effect on the world today. I have always suspected that the reason(s) for the persistent hardship(s) faced by Blacks all over the world has to do with something we did in the past. Indeed the author does raise this issue and gives excellent responses to it.

A horrible piece of pseudo-scholarship
I was initially overjoyed to discover a treatise which purported to be a comprehensive study of the history of the black races with a focus on Hebrews/Judaism in sub-Saharan Africa. As any serious scholar can agree, there is an incredible dearth of information on this subject. Unfortunately, this book DOES NOT fill the void. For instance, the first footnote in reference to the author's claim that the Mesopotamian cradle of civilization (the biblical garden of Eden) was populated by blacks states "this point will be proven later". It only gets worse. He dredges up that old biblical chestnut of the origin of the races according to the migrations of Noah's sons after the Deluge. A better source for the great diaspora of humans from their African cradle could be found in any Cavalli-Sforza volume. Windsor, here, only quotes from the King James Bible with no mention of earlier versions which, are now readily available to the English-speaker in numerous releases of the Dead Sea scrolls. There is little science, scholarship or, critical analysis. The bibliography is paltry. Windsor even misquotes Herodotus and Josephus. I most emphatically DO NOT recommend this book for either the serious scholar or the hobbyist.

Deep and truthful knowledge!!
Shalam,Shalam-Greeting peace unto you.
This is a excellent book and it has plenty of knowledge one can understand.In no way is the book an attempt to give the black race false knowledge its the truth about the orginal man of the planet dont let people tell you anything bad about this book other people should read it for themselves and be the Judge!

It has a deep rundown on the Hebrew race and how it ties in with the black man in America and alot of people can except that,but whats stated in this book is the honest truth.Take a look at this book for yourself and dont let anyone tell you bad about it I give it a perfect five stars!
