About the book

In 1870 barely one tenth of Africa was under European contro. By 1914 only about one tenth - Abyssinia (Ethiopia) and Liberia - was not. This book offers clear and concise account of the "scramble" or "race" for Africa, the period of around 20 years during wich European powers carved up the continent with little or no consultation of its inhabitants.
