As Undersecretary of State for the Colonies, Winston S. Churchill toured Britain's territories in East Africa. This book documents his travels and the people he met; he waxes lyrical on the natural beauty of Uganda and goes on to explore Egypt and Sudan via the White Nile. More than a travelogue however, Churchill turns his attention towards issues of government and development, suggesting that the best way to tap the latent wealth of East Africa was the development of the railway system. His ruminations on settlement, race and government provide an intriguing insight into contemporary imperialism and African history.

"My African Journey" by Winston Churchill is a travelogue written by the iconic British statesman and writer. Originally serialized in The Strand Magazine in 1908, the book chronicles Churchill's journey through British East Africa (modern-day Kenya and Uganda) in 1907. In "My African Journey," Churchill provides vivid descriptions of the landscapes, people, and wildlife he encounters during his travels. The narrative reflects not only his fascination with the natural beauty of Africa but also his keen observations on the socio-political issues of the time, including British imperial interests. Churchill's writing is characterized by a mix of adventure, wit, and insightful commentary. He shares his experiences with big-game hunting, interactions with local communities, and reflections on the challenges and opportunities presented by the British Empire in Africa. This travelogue is recommended for readers interested in Churchill's early life, imperial history, and the adventure genre. "My African Journey" offers a glimpse into the mind of one of the 20th century's most influential figures as he explores the complexities of Africa and the role of the British Empire on the continent.

As Under Secretary of State for the Colonies in 1907, Winston S. Churchill toured Britain's territories in East Africa. My African Journey, first published in 1908, documents his travels and the people he met; he waxes lyrical on the natural beauty of Uganda and goes on to explore Egypt and Sudan via the White Nile. More than a travelogue however, Churchill, now in his 30s, turns his attention towards issues of government and development, suggesting that the best way to tap the latent wealth of East Africa was the development of the railway system. His thoughts on settlement, race and government provide an intriguing insight into contemporary imperialism and African history and fascinating reading for both Churchill enthusiasts and those interested in the historical relationship between Britain and its colonies towards the end of the British Empire.

Acknowledging all Churchill's other accolades, we tend to overlook his claims as a writer of travel. A fine example is at hand in MY AFRICAN JOURNEY, the story of his 1908 excursion in Kenya and Uganda. Churchill's description of the East Africa of nearly a century ago makes an interesting comparison with today. The feeling of innocence and charm in the tribes he meets is now lost; the animals he hunts, decimated; the countryside through which he travels, pastoral no more. But Churchill could never be just a traveler, so he notes dozens of opportunities for improvement--many subsequently adopted. Fascinating to sojourn with the young Wilson, then in his early 30's, and feel the developing insight and judgment that one day would literally save the world.
