This thought-provoking book offers a unique perspective on British imperialism and its impact on the world, with a specific focus on the country's role during the Second Boer War. Written by Josephine Butler, a British writer and activist, the book challenges many of the assumptions and beliefs that underpinned British colonialism in the early 20th century. Although many of her friends and supporters spoke out against British imperial policy, Butler held a more nuanced view, arguing that despite its flaws, Britain was the "best" and "least guilty" of the nations. In the book, she takes a strong stance against the casual racism that was prevalent among her countrymen, calling for a more enlightened and compassionate approach to the diverse peoples and cultures that Britain ruled over. With its powerful message of tolerance, understanding, and respect for all people, this book remains a vital contribution to the ongoing debate about the legacy of British imperialism and its lasting impact on the world.
