Book Description
"The Fulani are one of West Africa's most populous and geographically dispersed ethnic groups. Commonly thought of as a pastoral people, primarily engaged in cattle herding, Fulani peoples are in reality highly differentiated in livelihood and patterns of mobility. Despite having a long history of residence in Ghana, Fulani are considered ""aliens"" in the eyes of the state and ""strangers"" by the various ethnic groups among whom they reside. Among Fulani themselves, differences of place, circumstance, and experience have generated parallel ambigoities on matters of identity and survival. In Moving Through and Passing On, Yaa P.A. Oppong focuses on the Fulani of the Greater Accra region to offer the first detailed account of the lives of this transnational community in Ghana.Based on eighteen months of ethnographic fieldwork, Oppong develops detailed case studies and draws upon over two hundred in-depth life histories to explore issues of mobility, survival, and identity among this spacially dispersed and diverse group. Using perspectives and insights gained from oral life histories, private and public ceremonies, and ethnic associations, she examines the sites and circumstances in which people profess to be the ""same"" or ""different"" from one another. The markers of Fulani identity-as recognized by Fulani and non-Fulani alike-are examined. Oppong also explores the factors that allow them, as a distinct ethnic category, to maintain and perpetuate this identity and viability in Greater Accra. The metaphoric analogy of ""construction sites"" is employed to define the explicit and implicit events and recurring processes through which people conceive of themselves as Fulani. These locations and contexts of action include ethnic associations, public gatherings, and common rites of passage. The recurring processes include genealogical reckoning of kinship and endogamous marriage transactions, and the ways in which ties of descent and filiation are used to enha"

Book Description
Alan Buckley has managed five football clubs over four decades and more than 1000 matches, putting him amongst the elite in the game. Alan Buckley: Pass and Move – My Story reveals his entire story, including the beginning of his career at Nottingham Forest, goal scoring records and hero-worship at Walsall, transforming Grimsby Town in three spells along with less happy times at West Brom. The book takes the reader through Alan’s adventures at Arsenal and Liverpool, and triumphs at Wembley along with managing a club in administration. There are many highs and many lows as he takes you on an absorbing journey through his life. Frank, funny and evocative, Pass and Move is filled with tales about the great and the good as Alan takes you on a journey through his 45 years of professional football, with all of the many highs and lows that it has brought. Alan is regarded as Walsall’s greatest player, and Grimsby fans know he is the greatest manager in the club’s history. Paul Thundercliffe was inspired by The Damned United by David Peace, and Pass and Move is a fantastic read for supporters of Walsall and Grimsby, or any fans of Alan Buckley. “Alan was on the radio with a friend of mine and told this great little anecdote. I half-joked to my friend that Alan needed to write a book and that I was the man to do it. Alan agreed!” Paul Thundercliffe comments on the inspiration behind this autobiography.
