The White Africans (1883)

By John Nott Pyke-Nott

Book Overview

The White Africans is a book written by Paradios and published in 1883. It is a historical account of the colonization of Africa by European powers, particularly the British. The book covers the period from the early 19th century to the late 1800s, when Africa was divided into colonies and exploited for its resources. The book focuses on the experiences of the European settlers who came to Africa during this time, particularly those who settled in South Africa. The author describes the challenges they faced, including conflicts with indigenous peoples, disease, and harsh living conditions. The book also explores the social and political structures that emerged in these colonies, including the development of apartheid in South Africa.Throughout the book, the author provides a critical analysis of the motivations behind European colonization of Africa, arguing that it was driven primarily by economic interests rather than a desire to spread civilization or Christianity. The book also explores the impact of colonization on African societies, including the displacement of indigenous peoples and the destruction of traditional ways of life.Overall, The White Africans provides a detailed and nuanced account of the complex history of European colonization in Africa, shedding light on the experiences of both the colonizers and the colonized.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
