Nd'Igbo Heroes: Profiles of Selected Igbo Heroes

In this painstakingly researched book, the history of the Igbo people of south-east Nigeria is profiled through some of their most prominent men and women – individuals whose impact has superseded ethnic and geographic boundaries.

The book tells a story of industry, resilience and ingenuity via the lives of its protagonists who lived in different time periods and circumstances. Together, they form a rich tapestry that serves as an inspiration to the present generation of Igbos and other Nigerians, whether at home or in the diaspora.

Packed with historical references and illustrations, Nd’Igbo Heroes is a documentation of Igboland and a call for communal action based on the traditional proverb, Igwe bu ike, (Unity is strength).
