Very Interesting

Although intended for for younger individuals, I think this would be a great read for just about anyone. The book is very frank in its dealings with the history of colonialism in Africa and does a very good job of giving a good overview of what happened. It packs a great deal of material into a small book, but the reading is very light and enjoyable.
