One man's reminiscences. Charles Allen, English journalist was born in India in the last years of the British Raj. His first book (Plain Tales From the Raj) caught the imagination of many. This book, written in 1979 looks at images of British Colonial Africa in the first half of the Twentieth Century. Very interesting and imagination catching.
