Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the Sherbro region of Sierra Leone, a largely unknown part of British West Africa. The author, an experienced colonial administrator, vividly paints a portrait of this vibrant trading hub and its surrounding hinterland, highlighting the rich natural resources and the complex social structures of the region. Exploring a period of transition marked by the gradual establishment of British influence in the late 19th century, the book offers a unique perspective on the impact of colonialism on local economies, politics, and social life. The author details the challenges and opportunities faced by the British government in managing the region, including the suppression of the slave trade, the establishment of trade routes, and the difficulties of imposing British law and order within a traditional, complex societal structure. The book delves into the intricacies of native society, offering a valuable window into the practices, beliefs, and rituals of the native people, including their intricate systems of trade, their dependence on indigenous resources such as palm oil and kernels, and their involvement in secret societies and traditional forms of justice. The insights offered by this book provide a rare and valuable glimpse into a pivotal chapter of colonial history and the lives of the people who lived through it.
