Britannia Waives the Rules -– AT Culwick

Condition : Good.
Eighth Impression, Nasionale Boekhandel, 1964, Hardback with removable protective plastic wrap – Africana – 112pp. Signs of foxing.

A member of the British Colonial Service in Africa reflects on his experiences. A scathing and idiosyncratic critique of British colonial policy by an ex colonial administrator. The author presents a “behind the scenes” observation of the machinations of the British rule in what was referred to as “The British Empire”.

Former D.O. Tanganyika & Kenya (& Chairman of the Kenya United Party at the Lancashire House Conference) comments regretfully on the benefits of vanishing imperial rule & the evils of decolonisation. Interesting reflection of settler mentality and the ‘apres nous le déluge’ genre.
