During Kwame Nkrumah's lifetime, one well-known publisher described him as "the only contemporary political writer who is certain to be read a hundred years from now". By the time of his death in 1972, some of Nkrumah's books had been translated into at least thirteen languages. Continuing into the new millennium, nearly all of Nkrumah's works are still in print, available through Panaf Books, and are read all over the world.

AFRICA MUST UNITE"No
single part of Africa can be safe, or free to develop fully and
independently, while any part remains unliberated, or while Africa's
vast economic resources continue to be exploited by imperialist
and neo-colonialist interests. Unless Africa is politically united,
under an All-African Union Government, there can be no solution
to our political and economic problems." Kwame
Nkrumah. First published 1963. Reprinted 1963, 1964 (three times),
1970, 1974, 1985, 1998. |

NEO-COLONIALISM: THE LAST STAGE OF IMPERIALISMThis is the book which, when first published in 1965, caused such an uproar in the US State Department that a sharp note of protest was sent to Kwame Nkrumah, and the $25million of American "aid" to Ghana was promptly cancelled. It exposes the working of international monopoly capitalism in Africa and shows how the stranglehold of foreign monopolies perpetuates the paradox of Africa: poverty in the midst of plenty. Kwame

REVOLUTIONARY PATHThis book was compiled during the last two years of the author's life.

Among the documents included in Parts One and Two are Editorials from the Accra Evening News, What I Mean by Positive Action, The Motion of Destiny, The Dawn Broadcast, and the full text of other important speeches and broadcasts. Introductory sections to each document provide further insight into the political thinking of this great revolutionary PanAfricanist. Kwame
