A book from Thriftbookd.com I just finished great way to learn about British Africa in the 20th century.

Tales From the Dark Continent: Images of British Colonial Africa in the Twentieth Century is a 1979 book by Charles Allen that compiles interviews with British colonial figures, offering a first-hand, anecdotal look at life in colonial Africa through the eyes of soldiers, missionaries, and administrators. The book captures the vanished world of the British Empire in Africa, focusing on the experiences of those who lived and worked there during the 20th century, and is based on a BBC radio series.
