Acerca del libro
A compelling account of the life of King Jaja for readers of African history. Drawing on government archives, reports, letters, and accounts, this book delves into the circumstances that led to King Jaja's deposition, trial, and removal from the West Coast of Africa to the West Indies. The authors have focused on the role of notable nineteenth-century British businessmen and how they influenced British government policy in the Niger Delta in the mid-1880s. This is a well-deserved look at the Machiavellian tactics adopted by Acting Consul Johnston as he sought to bring an end to Jaja's reign.
