Sierra Leone: After A Hundred Years by E.G. Ingham is a historical account of the West African country of Sierra Leone, covering the period from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century. The book explores the country's colonial past, including the arrival of the British and the establishment of the colony in Freetown, as well as the struggles of the Sierra Leonean people for independence and self-determination. Ingham provides a detailed analysis of the political, economic, and social developments that took place in Sierra Leone during this time period, including the growth of the diamond industry, the impact of World War II, and the rise of nationalist movements. He also examines the cultural and religious practices of the Sierra Leonean people, including their traditional beliefs and the introduction of Christianity and Islam.Throughout the book, Ingham draws on a range of primary sources, including government reports, newspapers, and personal diaries, to provide a comprehensive and nuanced account of Sierra Leone's history. He also includes a number of photographs and illustrations to help bring the country's past to life.Overall, Sierra Leone: After A Hundred Years is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of West Africa, colonialism, and the struggle for independence. It provides a detailed and engaging account of a fascinating period in Sierra Leone's past, and sheds light on the challenges and triumphs of a country and its people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
