Produktbeschreibung
Breaking open colonization to reveal tangled cultural and economic networks, "Webs of Empire" offers new paths into our colonial history.

Bringing together essays from two decades of prolific publishing on international colonial history, "Webs of Empire" demonstrates why Tony Ballantyne is one of the most influential historians working in New Zealand today.
