Colonial Agriculture for Africans: Emory Alvord's Policy in Zimbabwe (Society and Politics in Africa, Vol 6)

Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
"Colonial Agriculture for Africans: Emory Alvord's Policy in Zimbabwe is a pioneering work that explores, through a combination of biographical, institutional, and intellectual history, the roots of agricultural insufficiency and the colonial sources of the current dilemma of famine in potentially rich Zimbabwe. Dickson A. Mungazi and L. Kay Walker carefully unravel the Victorian theories of African inferiority which found articulation and policy application in colonial Africa of the first half of this century, and they demonstrate-in the spirit of George Orwell's "Shooting an Elephant"-the webs of failure spun by colonial administrators such as Emory D. Alvord." -Curtis M. Hinsley, Regents Professor of History, Northern Arizona University
