AbebooksGrand Eagle Retail ISBN10: 0349104492, ISBN13: 9780349104492, [publisher: Little, Brown Book Group, London] Softcover Paperback. In 1880 the continent of Africa was largely unexplored by Europeans. Less than thirty years later, only Liberia and Ethiopia remained unconquered by them. The rest - 10 million square miles with 110 million bewildered new subjects - had been carved up by five European powers (and one extraordinary individual) in the name of Commerce, Christianity, 'Civilization' and Conquest. The Scramble for Africa is the first full-scale study of that extraordinary episode in history. The extraordinary race for African territory that began in the 1880's and swept the political masters of Europe off their feet. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
