Book excerpt: Excerpt from The East Africa Protectorate IN the following pages I have endeavoured to give some account of the British East Africa Protectorate, that is, roughly speaking, our territories between Lake Victoria and the Indian Ocean, whose value is only now beginning to be understood. While omitting no aspect of the country which seemed likely to prove interesting, my special object has been to point out the Opportunity which it offers for European colonisation and the interesting effect which such a colony may have on the future development of Africa.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Glimpses of East Africa and Zanzibar ON learning that we were to start for British East Africa in a few weeks, naturally the first thing to be done was to inquire, and read up all that one could about that particular spot, the climate and the life generally. All the books I managed to get were very old, and the advice in them was useless, for places and conditions of life change so rapidly that what was wise to do a few years back is no criterion as to what is necessary after the country is more opened up and the conditions of climate more studied.

Book excerpt: Paul Emil von Lettow-Vorbeck (20 March 1870 – 9 March 1964) was a general in the Imperial German Army and the commander of its forces in the German East Africa campaign. For four years, with a force that never exceeded about 14,000 (3,000 Germans and 11,000 Africans), he held in check a much larger force of 300,000 British, Belgian, and Portuguese troops. Essentially undefeated in the field, von Lettow-Vorbeck was the only German commander to successfully invade imperial British soil during World War I. His exploits in the campaign have come down "as the greatest single guerrilla operation in history, and the most successful." [Source: Wikipedia]

Book excerpt: Excerpt from With the Nigerians in German East Africa It is my hope that, when the reader has finished this book, he will be as convinced as the writer that these soldiers from the borders of the sun-scorched Sahara, from the banks of the Niger and the Benue, from Yoruba land and Calabar, are second to none among the dark skinned sons of the Empire as fighting men. It will probably interest my readers if I set down for their information a short sketch of the history and doings of this gallant regiment, dating back as it does to the early days of the British Overseas Empire.

Book Synopsis The Forgotten Front by : Ross Anderson
Download or read book The Forgotten Front written by Ross Anderson and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2014-08-04 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First World War began in East Africa in August 1914 and did not end until 13 November 1918. In its scale and impact, it was the largest conflict yet to take place on African soil. Four empires and their subject peoples were engaged in a conflict that ranged from modern Kenya in the north to Mozambique in the south. The campaign combined heroic human endeavour and terrible suffering, set in some of the most difficult terrain in the world. The troops had to cope with extremes that ranged from arid deserts to tropical jungles to formidable mountains and almost always on inadequate rations.Yet the East African campaign has languished in undeserved obscurity over the years with many people only vaguely aware of its course of events. Indeed, Humphrey Bogart’s famous film, The African Queen, inspired by an episode of the campaign, often provides its only lasting image.The Forgotten Front is the first full-scale history of this neglected campaign. Ross Anderson details both the fighting and the strategic and political background to the war and the differing viewpoints of the principal protagonists

Book excerpt: Excerpt from British East Africa: Past, Present, and Future Strength of his tribe. During the warrior period, and until at the age of somewhere about thirty, they become an Elder or Meru and are allowed to marry, the Morans generally live in distinct villages or Kraals, in sexual intimacy with the immature girls of the tribe until the latter have approached their woman hood, when they also undergo an operation; and a girl who shows any objection to follow the universal custom and choose a lover is often held up to scorn and derision. After marriage the Meru is looked upon as an old man, and joins in the tribal councils, while he goes back to the bow and arrow of his boyhood, and generally lives a life of ease, and occasionally of debauch.

Book Synopsis A History of Modern Africa by : Richard J. Reid
Download or read book A History of Modern Africa written by Richard J. Reid and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2020-01-09 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new, fully-updated edition of the acclaimed textbook covering 200 years of African history A History of Modern Africa explores two centuries of the continent’s political, economic, and social history. This thorough yet accessible text help readers to understand key concepts, recognize significant themes, and identify the processes that shaped the modern history of Africa. Emphasis is placed on the consequences of colonial rule, and the links between the precolonial and postcolonial eras. Author Richard Reid, a prominent scholar and historian on the subject, argues that Africa’s struggle for economic and political stability in the nineteenth century escalated and intensified through the twentieth century, the effects of which are still felt in the present day. The new third edition offers substantial updates and revisions that consider recent events and historiography. Greater emphasis is placed on African agency, particularly during the colonial period, and the importance of the long-term militarization of African political culture. Discussions of the postcolonial period have been updated to reflect recent developments, including those in North Africa. Adopting a long-term approach to current African issues, this text: Explores the legacies of the nineteenth century and the colonial period in the context of the contemporary era Highlights the role of nineteenth century and long-term internal dynamics in Africa’s modern challenges Combines recent scholarship with concise and effective narrative Features maps, illustrations, expanded references, and comprehensive endnotes A History of Modern Africa: 1800 to the Present, 3rd Edition is an excellent introduction to the subject for undergraduate students in relevant courses, and for general readers with interest in modern African history and current affairs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of a South African Pioneer (1st Series "Wanderjahre") The period mainly. Dealt with is that magical one when South Africa-unnoted and obscure was startled from the simplicity of her bucolic life by the discovery. Of gold and diamonds. This was, of course, some years before the fountains of her boundless potential wealth had become fully unsealed. I was one of that band of light-hearted, haphazard pioneers who, rejoicing in youthful energy and careless of their own interests, unwittingly laid the foundation upon which so many great fortunes have been built. An ancient my.th relates how. The god Dionysus decreed that everything touched by Midas, the Phrygian king, should turn into gold, but the effect was so disastrous that Midas begged for a reversal of the decree. The prayer was granted, conditionally upon the afflicted king bathing in the River Pactolus. South Africa may, in a sense, he paralleled with Midas - both as regards the bane of gold and the antidote of bathing - but her Pactolus has been one of blood.
