Summary note
In the short space of a single lifetime, from 1886 to 1945, four colonial regimes planted their flags in the area. Each of these regimes came with differing capabilities, languages, customs and notions of mission. Hezel has written an authoritative and engaging narrative of this succession of colonial regimes, drawing upon a broad range of published and archival sources as well as his own considerable knowledge of the region.
