The collection Governing Africa of the British Online Archives contains primary source documents mostly derived from a series of annual reports and accounts sent to the British Government by its colonial administrations in Africa. The collections cover British colonial administrations that reigned during the 19th and 20th centuries, and include content on 13 former British African colonies. South Africa’s apartheid era is also covered extensively in the papers of journalist Colin Legum and materials from political parties.
This collection can be accessed via a 30-day free-trial or individual (week or month) user license.
