About this book

Ashanti gold: The African legacy of the world's most precious metal by Edward S Ayensu. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781840281163.

Word of west African gold reached Europe from the Phoenicians who sailed around its coasts more than a thousand years before Christ. By the Middle Ages, Guinea Coast gold was an international commodity. But it was local entrepreneurs who, 100 years ago, had the vision to advance their primitive enterprise with the tools of the industrial age.
