Colony of Lagos is a historical book written by William MacGregor in 1902. The book is a comprehensive account of the British colony of Lagos, which is located in Nigeria. The author, who was a British colonial administrator, provides a detailed description of the history, geography, economy, and social structure of Lagos during the colonial era. The book begins with an overview of the early history of Lagos, including its origins as a small fishing village and its eventual transformation into a major center of trade and commerce. MacGregor then goes on to describe the various political and economic factors that led to the establishment of British colonial rule in Lagos in the late 19th century.Throughout the book, MacGregor provides a detailed account of the various challenges faced by the British colonial authorities in Lagos, including the resistance of local communities to British rule, the impact of the slave trade on the local economy, and the difficulties of maintaining law and order in a rapidly growing urban center.The book also includes a number of detailed maps and illustrations, which help to bring the history of Lagos to life. Overall, Colony of Lagos is an important historical document that provides a unique insight into the complex history of colonialism in Nigeria.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
