This book examines the connections between the British Empire and
French colonialism in war, peace and the various stages of
competitive cooperation between, in which the two empires were
often freres ennemis. It argues that in crucial ways the British
and French colonial empires influenced each other. Chapters in the
volume consider the two empires' connections in North, West and
Central Africa, as well as their entanglement at sea in the
Mediterranean Sea, Persian Gulf and South China Sea. Also analysed
are their mutual engagement with Islam in both the Hajj and various
religiously inflected colonial revolts, their mutually-informed
systems of administration in the New Hebrides and generally, and
the interconnected ways the two empires fought World War II and
decolonization. By uniting historians of France and her colonies
with historians of Britain and her colonies, this volume speaks to
a broad international and imperial history audience.
