Book excerpt: Excerpt from The East Africa Protectorate In the following pages I have endeavoured to give some account of the British East Africa Protectorate, that is, roughly speaking, our territories between Lake Victoria and the Indian Ocean, whoso value is only now beginning to be understood. While omitting no aspect of the country which seemed likely to prove interesting, my special object has been to point out the opportunity which it offers for European colonisation and the interesting effect which such a colony may have on tho future development of Africa. After a brief historical retrospect, I have devoted three chapters to an account of the physical features of the country. Much of the territory is still imperfectly known, and even those who have claims to special knowledge are continually surprised by tho discovery of new districts, healthy, fertile, and suitable as a residence for Europeans. In this year, though six weeks of it have not yet elapsed, I have received reports of two such districts in parts of the Protectorate which were supposed to be barren, one in the north of the Rift Valley, and one near tho western extremity of the German boundary. After giving some account of tho country, I have touched on the various tribes which compose the somewhat scanty native population, and then, assuming that tho reader has acquired a sufficient acquaintance with the lie of the land and the character of its inhabitants, have proceeded to discuss tho prospects which it holds out to intending colonists, and such questions as climate, health, and products. I have next examined some problems connected with our administration, and suggested some improvements in the present somewhat imperfect system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twenty-Five Years in East Africa In the first place, I have endeavoured to bring together and set down in a popular form some facts of anthropological and social interest relating to Central Africa, which otherwise, owing to the rapid spread of civilization, might soon be lost for ever. At the same time it occurred to me that, in View of the great changes which have taken place since the British Government took over the Uganda Protectorate, some account of life in Africa in the early days of European settlement might be welcome both to my own friends and to others interested in that Continent. As a rule, companions and colleagues who might not perhaps care to be referred to by name have not been so mentioned; but there are some whose activities are so inseparably woven into the life and history of the time that it has been impossible to follow such a rule in all cases. The reader must not, however, forget that the writer was only one of a band, and that all that he experienced and endured was shared by others, every one of whom went out prepared to face discomfort and danger, and even to lay down his life in a far country. Another object has been to give to those who may possibly settle in our East African Protectorate a timely word of guidance and even, perhaps, of warning. Again, readers Will find a certain amount of criticism of Government action and also of missionary methods. This is intended in no unfriendly Spirit my aim has been to point out how absolutely essential it is that those who desire to govern or assist primitive peoples should be sufficiently versed in the science of anthropology to be able to regard them, their cus toms, and their religion with intelligent sympathy. With the vastly increased facilities for studying the subject there is now no reason why any one should undertake work in such a country without some previous study of anthropology.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Years of War in East Africa The author does not harp overmuch on the sickness and privations of his comrades - The has been through too many of them to do so; but I am reminded of the remark of one of them during the not infrequent periods of grousing which every respectable British soldier must have. Ah, I wish to h I was in France! There one lives like a gentleman and dies like a man, here one lives like a pig and dies like a dog. There may have been something in this remark, yet I have thought as I saw the 25th staggering on, absolutely in rags, many with fever actually on them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foundation of British East Africa Since the manuscript was concluded, news of the mutiny in Somaliland' and the deplorable death of Mr. Jenner, whose tact and integrity as chief judge at Mombasa did so much to establish native faith in British justice, and the rebellion in Nandi show that British East Africa has not yet secured the peace which is essential to that growth of population which is the country's greatest need. These wars are most regrettable from financial as well as other considerations. The government of British East Africa will for some years inevitably be very costly. A cheap administration at the present stage must come to evil. Five millions of pounds are being spent on the Uganda railway, which will assuredly prove a bad investment if money for the development of the country be unwisely stinted. A more generous grant for the investigation of the economic resources of the country is especially necessary.

I am, however, induced to add one more drop to this volume by the reflection that the great proportion of that stream is tinged by, if indeed not mainly composed of, the blood of slain animals, and that there is not very much recent matter which will afford information, even Of the roughest kind, as to the life and Opportunities which will await the intending Settler.
