Africa Book Publishers & Distributors
List is from March 2011. Only a few updates added more recently.
The publishers and distributors listed on this page are publishers and distributors
in Africa and around the world that either focus exclusively on Africa-related books
or publish a significant number of books on Africa each year. I am beginning the list
with publishers and distributors known to me and with websites that supply sufficient
information about the books they publish or distribute.
