INTRODUCTIONWhen I commenced work on this history in 1970, the Northern Territory was largely ignored by people outside its bounds, except perhaps for the anthropologists. Australians generally were as ill-informed about the Territory as people overseas are of Australia: it was good place for holiday, but not place to be taken seriously. During the last decade, the situation has changed dramatically, not least because of the attention focused on …

Old trails and new directions
The trial of Arabi Pasha
The British Occupation of Egypt
Historians, among others, expose the lies and deceptions of politicians, dead and alive. But historians themselves often are deceived by the limitations of their own approaches to history. While they themselves may act emotionally or sometimes irrationally in their personal lives, they are too often committed to seek rational explanations for the behavior of statesmen. Grossly understimates in many instancees is the power of retionalization as a …

Mackinnon and East Africa, 1878-1895
In the 1870s Britain dominated the coast of east Africa by informal influence exerted from Zanzibar through the renowned consul-general, Sir John Kirk. This unchallenged position ended with the decision of Bismarck to back Carl Peters in his treaty-making activities and the mainland opposite Zanzibar was partitioned in 1886 into British and German spheres. The British government was not willing to assume the responsibility and expense involved in…

The British South Africa Company and the Jameson Raid
When a powerful state seeks to impose its will on a weaker one, it expects to be subject to condemnation, which must be weighed against its assessment of national interest. Failure does not eliminate the condemnation; indeed it may intensify it. In most books and articles on the Jameson Raid and its antecedents, the fact that it was a fiasco foredoomed to disaster seems to add to the gravity of the indictment against those who planned it. In rece…
Italy, the British East Africa Company, and the Benadir Coast, 1888-1893
The Imperial Frontier in the Tropics, 1865-75
The African history-and the counterparts it must have in Asia, Southeast Asia, the Pacific, and Latin America-has presented challenges and problems to those who in earlier decades had no difficulty knowing what it meant to call themselves historians of the British or students of imperialism. Not that the approaches have destroyed the earlier field; just because Western scholars have finally recognized the obvious-that the history of the world out…
Great Britain and Germany's Lost Colonies, 1914-1919
The 'Turbulent Frontier' as a Factor in British Expansion
British imperial policy during the first three quarters of the nineteenth century was increasingly dominated by men of business and industry who prided themselves upon their clear-headed devotion to sound economic principles. The world in which they lived had no place for maudlin sentimentality. The industrial system which had made Britain the wealthiest and most powerful state in the world must not be trammeled by artificial restrictions nor sho…

The Chartering of the British North Borneo Company
“Imperialism,” an eminent historian has written, “is no word for scholars.” But the study of European political expansion in Asia, the Pacific islands, and Africa in the last quarter of the nineteenth century certainly merits scholarly attention, and recently has been receiving it. Since 1960 an impressive array of books and articles has appeared which present new insights into aspects of the “scramble,” particularly the motives for British actio…

A Note on the British Fur Trade in California, 1821-1846
The weakness of the California government evoked contempt by the company's officers. As Governor George Simpson admitted in 1829 to the governing board in London, with regard to the territorial rights of the Mexican Republic, the company followed the example of its American opponents by making no inquiries about them.' If California had been a rich fur territory, it would have been infested by rival trading parties; its main defenses were distanc…
