THE KING OF LOKOJA: William Balfour Baikie, the Forgotten Man of Africa

Although Baikie was born 4,000 miles away in Orkney, he was designated the Kind of Lokoja by the ruler of the Sokoto Caliphate. This work defines the man and his accomplishments and reveals how he is so fondly remembered by the Nigerians and yet apparently so totally forgotten by the rest of the world. Photos, some in color.
