This volume discusses a short history of British Colonial policy. With all its faults the book represents much reading and some thought. In writing what is, to some extent, a history of opinion, it has been impossible altogether to suppress my own individual opinions. I trust, however that I have not seemed to attach importance to them. In dealing with the later periods, I remembered Sir Walter Raleigh's remark on the fate which awaits the treatment of contemporary history; but obscurity may claim its compensations, and atleast I am not conscious of having written under the bias of personal or party prejudice.
Excerpt from History of the British Colonies, Vol. 4 of 5: Possessions in Africa and Austral-Asia Our past and present colonial policy, compared also with that of ancient and modern nations, will be developed when I have placed the whole of my facts before the public; it will then be seen whether the inductions I pur pose making as regards the existing colonial system, are justified from the facts previously adduced.
