mandinka books

Sunjata Three Mandinka Versions By Gordon Innes 1974
Kaabu and Fuladu Historical Narratives of The Gambian Mandinka By Gordon Innes 1976
A Grammar of Gambian Mandinka By E.C. Rowland
The Mandingo kingdoms of Senegambia by Charlotte Quinn 1974
Manden Music, Traditional and Modern music by Eric Charry
and also Dr David Gamble with Mandingo .
this books are important since the researches were conducted a long time ago. now the language like many others are diluted and contaminated by English and other dialects. Language is the key to self awareness and individual and communal pride. there is a need to educate and regain lost pride in our languages. i intend to do my bit in that process.
