feels kinda dumb to rate this as it’s less a book than an insanely huge seminal collation of hidden archives of anti-colonial activity and organising....? and also would DEFINITELY not recommend reading cover to cover lol it’s informationally dense so kinda not a “book” in how good reads functions with “books” ??
but what can I say it really is an essential read, the whole point of the book is to help us un/relearn the history of resistance to colonialism and for that you have to actually comprehensively delve into the accounts and textual analysis presented here. heavy but invaluable !

Incredibly informative, very well written and certainly worth reading for anyone who wants to know about British colonialism.
If have liked to see about the times as many full stops and paragraph breaks, but that's a very minor, stylistic gripe with a book that's excellent and very important overall.

There were better men and women in those times, in Britain and throughout the empire, than the Men of Their Times.
This looks like a valuable book, but it's a little too much on the dense/academic side for the level of focus I'm capable of at the moment. I can't face a page without any paragraph breaks!
