I have the book about congos History, but its very in-depth, and would take too long of a time to read. I need some easy to reach sources to get some background information about the different periods of colonization, the resources in congo and their use, plus some side-info on Henry Morton Stanley, and Leopold.

If you want to help me, man, i could kiss you. But dont let that put you of, its positive gesture. Female historians might have something to look forward to though :D
