You'd have to first collect a bunch of history books written by Africans, not by Westerners/Europeans. Then you'd have to sift away the resentful, the rose-tinted-past romanticism and, uhh, the anti-colonialist reactionary political nonsense. Then you would end up with one or two excellent books written by the salt of the earth.

It would require a huge effort, sadly.
