Battle inAfricais a uniquely vivid analysis of colonial campaigning in the late-Victorian and Edwardian eras. Author Howard Whitehouse guides the readersystematically through each stage of an African campaign,from the formulationof strategy to the fate of the wounded, and from the collection of supplies to thetactics of guerrilla warfare. He also offers a long-overduecomparativeapproach, which describes the Belgian, German and Italian experiences as wellas the better-known French and British ... and he gives a rare emphasis to theperceptions of the indigenous African 'enemy'.
