Wars of Imperial Conquest in Africa, 1830-1914

"An eminently readable and useful treatment of the military's role in the European colonialization... an interesting, sometimes fascinating, account of conflict in Africa... " — Parameters

"There is no comparable work. None covers as broad a topic — the experience of colonial wars of all the imperial powers and at the same time a consideration of the African wars of resistance against the imperial attacks." — William B. Cohen, Indiana University

This path-breaking work investigates the social, economic, and political impact of the European colonial wars in Africa on both the victors and the vanquished.
