Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Britain Across the Seas Africa: A History and Description of the British Empire
IN view of the great developments of the British Empire in Africa since the commencement of the Twentieth Century, it was thought desirable by the National Society that a concise history of this racial enterprise should be published, which would not be too abstruse for young students (whose previous knowledge of Africa might be assumed to be elementary), nor yet too lacking in technical information to be of service to those who had left student hood behind, but desired to learn rapidly 'how all these things came to pass in this Continent of black, white, and yellow peoples. The book was to be written as far as possible without national or party bias.
