It is intended for students of history taking the new Cameroon GCE 'O' level, the West African Schools Certificate and the Teachers' Certificate examinations. This volume covers the period from prehistoric times to the eve of colonisation in the nineteenth century. The author shows how historians work, using sources that range from archaeology to eyewitness accounts. He explains Cameroon's place in Africa and in African history, detailing the peoples of Cameroon and their way of life before colonisation. Their economic, religious and cultural lives, including the effect of slavery, are examined. The effects of Islam and European explorers and traders are described, and a section on missions and schools takes the story to 1884. This book fills a need which has long been felt, for a textbook on Cameroon history in English. 2: This second volume completes the long-awaited first history textbook in English for college and secondary students in Cameroon. It is intended for students of history taking the new Cameroon GCE ‘O’ level, the West African Schools Certificate and the Teachers’ Certificate examinations. V.G. Fanso now takes up the story in 1884, on the eve of the colonial era. He explains clearly the rival presences of the British, French and Germans in Cameroon, and how the country was annexed by Germany. He explains how, against some resistance, the Germans penetrated the inland areas and took over by military force where necessary. The nature of their colonial administration is described, as are developments in education and economic life, the fate of the missions, and the judicial system. Similarly detailed treatment is given to British and French rule under the mandate system between the world wars and to the course and impact of war on Cameroon. The British and French trusteeships are examined, with their far-reaching developments in politics, the constitution and government. Nationalism in the Southern Cameroons, the independence of French Cameroon, the plebiscites that led to the unification and independence of Cameroon, first as a federation, then under the Unitary Constitution of 1972, and in the 1980s, bring the history up to date. Political, economic and social developments are fully integrated into this excellent, indispensable account of Cameroon in the modern world.
