However, careless editing and a frustrating citation style (partly in text and partly end note, neither of which I find appropriate to historical writing; footnotes or nothing, folks) do detract from her argument somewhat. The occasional lapse from 'Muslim' to 'Moslem', for example, or the assumption that the reader will be able to intuit what is meant by "Palmié's theme-park theory of African ethnicity" (not a self-explanatory phrase for me, I'll admit; it only makes me think of roller coasters), make me wonder what other infelicities have escaped my notice.
