Curing the Colonizers

"Eric T. Jennings's ability to give an in-depth understanding of five very different regions, mastering the primary and secondary literature on all of them, is simply breathtaking. To my knowledge, no one else has managed to write this kind of colonial history, examining the imperial framework as a whole while at the same time giving detailed information about individual colonies."--Tyler Stovall, coeditor of "The Color of Liberty: Histories of Race in France"

Eric T. Jennings is an associate professor in the Department of History at the University of Toronto.
