Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of British Colonial Policy In spite of all that has been recently written on the South African question, I am not without hopes that the portion of this book relating to it may be of some slight use. The subject has been generally approached either from the point of View of the experienced observer on the spot or of the partisan of some particular policy; my aim has been to bring out from the Parliamentary Papers how largely the present is the heritage of the past. Pace Mr H. M. Stanley, it does not follow that because we are convinced that Great Britain must remain paramount in South Africa, we need therefore refuse any sympathy to Dutch grievances, which are largely due to the mistakes and hesitations of English statesmen in the past. In a volume which deals with a long period of time and many scattered events, there are doubtless mistakes and inaccuracies. For such I would pray pardon in anticipation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Colonial Policy: 1783 1915 When we speak of Britain's Colonial policy a critic might at once Object that Great Britain has never had a Colonial policy. By sheer good fortune, it might be maintained, she stumbled into possession Of fertile places in various parts Of the earth and has succeeded in retaining them. There is a certain measure Of truth in this con tention. The British Empire is undoubtedly due to the political genius, the enterprise, the inde pendent spirit and the initiative of individuals, rather than to the constant and enlightened pursuit of a definite goal by the British Govern ment. Nevertheless, as we view it, the history 'of Great Britain's Colonial policy since 1783 is the history of an evolutionary process in Which there are three marked stages. During the first period the mother country, disillusioned and disappointed, left the entire control of the Colonies nominally to the Secretary of State charged With their administration, in reality to the permanent Officials in the Colonial, Ofiice. Thus ruled from Downing Street, they came to resent the interference Of Mr. -mother Country' in their concerns, and clamoured for Responsible Government as the only permanent remedy of their political, economic and social disorders.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Colonial Policy: 1754 1765 The matter contained in this essay was collected in the course of an extensive study of the old British colonial system. At the outset of the investigation, more attention was paid to the development of the eighteenth, than to that of the preceding century; but as the work progressed, the necessity of treating the origins and establishment of the system on a larger scale became patent. Consequently, although the material for the eighteenth century was to a great extent elaborated, it appeared advisable to defer its publication until the preceding age could be more carefully investigated. As, however, it was decided at the same time to treat the entire subject apart from the controversies of the American Revolution, there exists no valid reason to refrain from publishing the results of the study of the transitional years from 1754 to 1765. The subject of the work, its exact scope and limits, are clearly indicated by the title. It is a study of British policy during the critical period of the old Empire. Thus the essay belongs distinctly to the domain of British history; but to the extent that English and American development were then inseparable, it also, but more indirectly, falls within the field occupied by American history. The focus of interest is, however, the British Empire, and not the rise of the American Nation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
