Originally published in 1959 by a former Governor of Uganda and Head of the Africa Division of the former Colonial Office, this book is a concise exposition of British aims and methods in colonial Africa and the extent of British influence, and the way the region was administered before the war with insufficient staff and money. The problems around the transfer of power in countries such as Ghana and Kenya are also discussed, along with the problems of government from Whitehall and local government.
