The Historical Dictionary of the Sudan, authored by Robert S. Kramer, Richard A. Lobban Jr., and Carolyn Fluehr-Lobban, is an essential reference work for understanding the complex history and culture of Sudan. Published in its fourth edition in 2013, this book provides cross-referenced over 700 entries on significant figures, events, politics, religion, and society. It also includes a detailed chronology, appendices, and an extensive bibliography, making it an excellent resource for researchers, students, and anyone interested in Sudanese history.

This edition reflects key developments in Sudan’s history, particularly the 2011 independence of South Sudan, and covers topics ranging from ancient civilizations to contemporary political and social movements. The authors, experts in African history and anthropology, aim to present a balanced perspective on Sudan’s historical challenges, particularly the cultural and religious divides between the north and south of the country.
