This bibiliography contains a list of reference materials and books related to history of eighteenth century Africa. The primary source-materials for this period of Egyptian history are abundant, but by no means fully or systematically exploited. The accounts of European travellers and residents in Egypt are less important than for an earlier period, but exception must be made of E. W. Lane, The manners and customs of the modern Egyptians first published in London in 1836, many numerous later editions. The abundant periodical literature on the period is listed in J. D. Pearson, Index Islamicus, 1906-1955 and its Supplements. There is a great wealth of source-material for the nineteenth-century history of Ethiopia and the Horn. The political and military history of the Ethiopian state, is dealt within a number of chronicles, in the Ge'ez language and mostly anonymous for the first half of the century, thereafter in Amharic as well as Ge'ez and with named or at least identifiable authors.
