A History of the Gambia Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Out of stock

Description

Originally published in 1940, this book contains a history of the West Coast of Africa from the invasion by the Portuguese in 1455 until 1938, when the area was under British control.

Gray, who was a judge on the Supreme Court of the Gambia at the time, documents the often-bloody colonial developments in the area and the 'many vicissitudes of fortune' that the area had gone through since the first arrival of white people on its shores.

This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the colonial history of Africa.
