Author Thomas Pakenham provides a detailed account of the European powers' scramble for African territory, beginning with the Portuguese exploration of the continent in the 15th century. He traces the development of European colonialism in Africa, from the establishment of trading posts and coastal settlements to the full-scale colonization of the continent in the late 19th century.
Pakenham's book is not just a dry history of dates and events. He brings the story of colonialism to life with vivid accounts of the explorers, missionaries, and colonial administrators who shaped Africa's destiny. He also provides a nuanced analysis of the complex relationship between colonizers and colonized, and the lasting legacy of colonialism in Africa.
The Scramble for the Mastery of Africa is a must-read for anyone interested in African history, colonialism, or the impact of imperialism on the world.
