Description and Table of Contents

Description

This is the first of a two-part volume documenting the frequently turbulent political relationship between Britain and Ghana. Formerly the Gold Coast, Ghana became the first tropical African state to achieve independence from European colonial rule in March 1957. This selection of documents provides an insight into British perspectives on how Ghana achieved its independence, and also on how, in the process, Ghana played a pioneering role in the ending of colonial rule in Africa.
