Excerpt from Togoland
Raising of indigenous products, and excellent results were obtained. Vaccination was introduced, and the scourge of small-pox was arrested. A system of native education was instituted by the Government by which the little Togolanders were instructed in the German language, and the history of the German Empire and the lives of its Emperors Since 1870. The geography of Germany also formed a subject of juvenile native study, while the singing of German patriotic songs had an honoured place in the curri culum. The agricultural and educational systems were triumphs of organisation, and the results sur passed expectation yet we have the testimony of both a German and an English authoress that the German methods had their defects, and that the people were.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the annexation of Togoland by Germany, Germany's subsequent colonisation efforts and finally the surrender of the territory to Allied forces. The author presents a detailed account of Germany's thirty-year rule in Togoland, a period characterised by infrastructure development but also marred by brutality and exploitation. The book highlights the contrast between the German approach, which sought to impose European standards and ideals upon the Togolese people, and the British approach, which emphasised local autonomy. The author questions the German claim to a superior moral right to rule based on strength and suggests that their failure to govern Togo effectively was due to a misunderstanding of the nature of strength and weakness. The book concludes by discussing the valuable lessons to be learned from Germany's colonial experiment in Togo, lessons which are still relevant in the modern era This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
