Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Outlines of British Colonisation Mr. Greswell´s volume on Colonisation is a record of achievements of which the British nation may justly be proud. We read in these pages of maritime discoveries in every ocean, and of still more arduous inland explorations. The brilliant story of our colonisation carries us forward from the solitary struggles of the pioneer in unknown countries to the combined efforts made by great communities to develop commerce and promote civilisation. We see the first administrators of our distant dependencies at their work, in days when communication was slow and infrequent, and when little aid could be given and little interference was to be apprehended on the part of the authorities at home. In a later stage we have before us encouraging and splendid examples of the prosperity and contentment which have followed upon the bold and ungrudging acceptance of the policy of the devolution of local affairs upon a responsible constitutional government. In any history of our colonies the West Indies must have a large place. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
