I'm not talking about any time period specific like African American history. I'm talking about from Africa to Haiti to wherever. Any recommended books? If there is a thread on this already point me to it because I couldn't find one.

Anybody read The Lost Cities of Africa" by Basil Davidson? I've skimmed through it a bit, but it usually sits on my desk at work (know general bits and pieces anyway). Another book I've actually read was Chancellor Williams' "Destruction of Black Civilization: Great Issues of a Race from 4500 B.C. to 2000 A.D."
There's tons of material out there I'm not thinking of...

"Introduction by Rush Limbaugh" 
Both read in college and both currently in my collection. I'm also a huge fan of Arabic literature (story of zahra and midaq alley 
) but that's for another thread.
