What is The Yoruba from Prehistory to the Present about?

"The Yoruba are one of the largest ethnic groups in West Africa, with significant populations in Nigeria, Benin, and Togo, as well as a sizable diasporic community around the world. By considering the art, religion, economics, and political systems of the Yoruba, Aribidesi Usman and Toyin Falola chart the history of the Yoruba through the lens of the group's diverse and dynamic cultural and social practices. Using archaeological data, oral, and archival sources alongside rarely discussed local histories Usman and Falola form a rich and detailed picture of the Yoruba from a period of early occupation and agriculture, through the growth of complex societies and empires and the turbulent colonial period, to the present day, constructing a comprehensive account of Yoruba history brought together in a single volume"--Publisher's description
