Heroic Imperialists in Africa: The Promotion of British and French Colonial Heroes, 1870–1939 - Studies in Imperialism
Berny Sebe
This book looks at imperial heroes from behind the legends of a dozen major colonial figures on both sides of the Channel, revisiting the familiar stories under a radically new angle. It demonstrates how their reputations were made over several decades, and depicts the milieus and individuals who supported, and benefited from, these heroic stories. -- .
