Description

This collection of essays explores the impact of colonial rule in West Africa and African reactions to it from conquest to independence. Michael Crowder examines the effects of European culture on African societies, as well as resistance to European conquest and the varying experiences under French and British administration.

Crowder's work delves into the ways Africans responded to the new socio-political structures imposed upon them, and when they began to take control over these systems. The colonial period is considered in its broader significance within African history.
