Sanakhou — Elizabeth Evans

Murder, mayhem, marriage and revenge are all elements of
this story of the ancient kingdom of Mali. The thirteenth century
warrior, Sundiata Keita, makes a sanakhou pact of mutual aid
with warrior-archer Faony Konde, a chief of the Konde tribes,
as thanks for the warriors help in defeating the evil king of the
Sosso tribes.


Twenty years later, Sundiata Keita, calls in the pledge of
sanakhou in his time of need. His need is to fi nd a husband for
his unmarried daughter. Faony Konde sends his oldest son to
now king, Sundiata Keita, to honor his sanakhou pact.
Finally, murderers and thieves are captured; conspiracies and
motives of revenge are revealed and the throne and Sundiatas
power over his kingdom are secure.


This second edition of Sanakhou contains additional information about the map of ancient Mali and a genealogy chart of the
Keita dynasty.
