Book Description
When Lady Lugard sat down to write A Tropical Dependency, it was not her intention to inspire generations of Africans to regain the independence of their countries. Lugard writes of slavery as though it was a God-given right of Europeans to own Africans as slaves. Ironically, her text on Africa's place in history reaffirms the belief that "If Africa did it once, Africa can do it again!"

Book Description
Excerpt from A Tropical Dependency: An Outline of the Ancient History of the Western Soudan With an Account of the Modern Settlement of Northern Nigeria It has become the habit of the British mind to think of the British Empire as a white empire. But, as a matter of fact, we all know that ours is not a white empire. Out of an estimated population of 413,000,000, only 52,000,000, or one in eight, are white. Out of a territory of 16,000,000 square miles, which extends over a quarter of the globe, about 4,000,000 square miles or a quarter of the whole, lies within the tropics. The administration of this quarter of the Empire cannot be conducted on the principle of self-government as that phrase is underwood white men. It must be more or less in the nature of an autocracy which leaves with the rulers full responsibility for the prosperity of the ruled. The administration of India, where this aspect of the question has been long appreciated, is among the successes of which the British people is most justly proud. The work done by England in Egypt is another proof of our capacity for autocratic rule. We are justified therefore in thinking of ourselves as a people who may face with reasonable hopes of success still vaster questions of tropical administration. We stand now at an interesting moment in our history. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
