4.0 out of 5 stars Extreme Imperialism, May 14, 2009
This review is from: The Revolt of the Hereros (Perspectives on Southern Africa) (Hardcover)
Short, but very well written account of German exploitation and destruction of the Herero tribe of German Southwest Africa (today, Namibia)in the first decade of the 20th Century. One underlying theme carefully worked out is how racial prejudice influenced the conduct of the suppression. Kaiser Bill comes off very poorly in this matter. Had he not given the revolt his high level of attention, perhaps the suppression would have been much milder.
