Built on the Ruins of Empire: British Military Assistance and African Independence
Blake Whitaker
During the Cold War the British government oversaw the transition to independence of dozens of colonies. Often the most challenging aspect of this transition was the creation of a national army from colonial forces. Blake Whitaker examines this process in Kenya and Zambia and how it set the course for the creation of the army in Zimbabwe.
