About the book

This two-volume history examines the rapid European colonisation and partition of Africa during the late nineteenth century. The set explores imperial rivalry, diplomacy, military conquest and resistance by African societies. It places the scramble within the wider economic and political ambitions of European powers while also examining its profound and lasting effects on the continent.
