John Kent has written the first full scholarly study of British and French policy in their West African colonies during the Second World War and its aftermath. His detailed analysis shows how the broader requirements of AngloFrench relations in Europe and the wider world shaped the formulation and execution of the two colonial powers policy in Black Africa. He examines the guiding principles of the policymakers in London and Paris and the problems experienced by the colonial administrators themselves. This is a genuinely comparative study, thoroughly grounded in both French and British archives, and it sheds new light on the development of AngloFrench cooperation in colonial matters in this period.
