The book presents an insight into the history, culture and philosophy of the Igbos from pre-colonial times to the present.

The book unravels the sophistry behind the make up of the Igbo people as defined in their knowledge of ancient metallurgy, their arts, language, music and musical instruments, festivities, traditional socio-political institutions and administration as it relates to the present. The Igbo people are widely dispersed leading to acculturation and loss of some of the pristine values enshrined in their culture. This work will help to redirect the ethos of those so affected and also assist in bridging the inter-generational gap arising therefrom.
