What did it mean to be an African subject living in remote areas
of Tanganyika at the end of the colonial era? For the Kaguru of
Tanganyika, it meant daily confrontation with the black and white
governmental officials tasked with bringing this rural people into
the mainstream of colonial African life. T. O. Beidelman s detailed
narrative links this administrative world to the Kaguru s wider
social, cultural, and geographical milieu, and to the political
history, ideas of indirect rule, and the white institutions that
loomed just beyond their world. Beidelman unveils the colonial
system's problems as it extended its authority into rural areas and
shows how these problems persisted even after African
independence."
