Title Sierra Leone Under Colonial Rule, in Government Reports, 1893-1961
Description

Sierra Leone Under Colonial Rule, in Government Reports, 1893-1961 contains papers from the colonial government in Sierra Leone. They reveal the approach the British took to colonial rule in this country. The reports are divided into nine distinct volumes for convenience. These are Administration, Finance, Judicial and Police, Natural Resources, Social Services, Transport and Public Works, Communications and Post Office Savings, Commerce, and Staff Lists and Miscellaneous.

The government reports contained in this collection cover several important developments and events in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, including the First and Second World Wars, social services during colonial governance, and Sierra Leone achieving independence in 1961. The reports, therefore, provide students and academics with a unique insight into the history of Sierra Leone and the development and eventual dissolution of British colonialism in West Africa.

This collection is accompanied by a guide to the microfilm edition, by David C. Doward.
