ALA VI: Writings of Western Sahara Africa - detailed volume on the current state of Mauritania

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

This volume is being worked on now, though it will be so large and detailed that it will no doubt take several years to complete it for publication. The principal area it covers will be the current state of Mauritania, where there are several [public] manuscript collections; and many manuscripts of authors of the Western Saharan region will also be found in West African countries such as Mali and Senegal; and also in North Africa - notably in Morocco; and some in France, and perhaps other European countries.
