Description
Liberia: The Path to War is a complete graphic account of the history, politics, economic, and social life of the amiable people of Liberia – a once beautiful “glorious land of liberty.” The book traces how Liberia modelled its politics upon the American presidential system after its independence in July 1847. It relates how the ideal dividends of independence were distorted by the conflicting forces of the indigenous Liberians and the Americo-Liberians (the majority group of descendants of former American slaves who held power tenaciously for 133 post-independence years).
