In this concise biography, Scully shows us how the life of Nobel Peace Prize winner and two-time Liberian president Ellen Johnson Sirleaf speaks to many of the key themes of the twenty-first century.
Pamela Scully is professor of women’s, gender, and sexuality studies and of African studies at Emory University. Her most recent book is the coauthored biography Sara Baartman and the Hottentot Venus: A Ghost Story and a Biography.
“A clear and concise introduction to the woman and to the domestic
and international politics that have shaped her personally and
professionally.”
“In scarcely 100 short pages, this excellent addition to the Ohio
Short Histories of Africa series offers a valuable perspective on
Liberia’s outgoing President, and Africa’s first elected female
Head of State.”
