Civilization In Congoland: A Story Of International Wrongdoing is a book written by H. R. Fox Bourne. The book is a detailed account of the atrocities committed in the Congo Free State during the late 19th and early 20th centuries under the rule of King Leopold II of Belgium. It highlights the exploitation and enslavement of the Congolese people for the benefit of European powers, including the forced labor in rubber plantations and the extraction of ivory and minerals. The book also sheds light on the role of missionaries and journalists in exposing the brutalities committed by the colonial powers. Civilization In Congoland is a powerful condemnation of the colonialism and imperialism that characterized the European presence in Africa during the late 19th century. The book remains a significant historical document in the ongoing discourse around the legacy of colonialism and its impact on African societies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
