dc.descriptionThis book, a study of warfare in the emirates that constituted the Sokoto Caliphate in nineteenth-century northern Nigeria, was originally prepared as a doctoral thesis at Northwestern University (1970). Since then it has been revised by adding an introductory essay on the evolution of Sudanic warfare; deleting a short chapter on Islamic military practices, and distributing much of that material throughout the book; and incorporating the results of more recent research. Regrettably, this work went to press without the benefit of research in Nigeria. Three times between 1969 and 1973 I had planned for such research, but in each instance unforeseen problems precluded its fruition. Fortunately the abundance of other accessible materials permitted the writing of a book of this nature.-
