During the 1890s, the Scramble for Africa created the new country
of Uganda. This inland territory carved out by British agents first
encompassed some 20-30 African kingdoms. In his magisterial new
study, Anthony Low examines how and why the British were able to
dominate these rulerships and establish a colonial government. At
the same time, the book goes beyond providing a simple narrative
account of events; rather, Low seeks to analyse the conditions
under which such a transformation was possible. By skilfully
negotiating the many complex political and social undercurrents of
this period, Low presents a groundbreaking theoretical model of
colonial conquest and rule. The result is a major contribution to
debates about the making of empire that will appeal to Africanists
and imperial historians alike
