Great Britain: Has Been And Will Be Again Within The Tropics is a historical book written by Alfred Wilks Drayson in 1860. The book explores the history of Great Britain's colonization and expansion into tropical regions around the world, including Africa, India, and the Caribbean. Drayson argues that Great Britain's success in these regions was due to its superior military and naval power, as well as its ability to adapt to the local climate and culture.The book also discusses the economic benefits of British colonization in the tropics, such as the production of valuable crops like sugar and cotton. Drayson argues that these economic benefits were essential to the growth and prosperity of the British Empire.Throughout the book, Drayson emphasizes the importance of maintaining British dominance in the tropics, arguing that it is essential to the country's continued prosperity and global influence. He also addresses criticisms of British colonialism, arguing that it was ultimately beneficial for the colonized peoples and helped to spread civilization and progress around the world.Overall, Great Britain: Has Been And Will Be Again Within The Tropics provides a detailed and passionate defense of British colonialism in the tropics, as well as a fascinating glimpse into the mindset of imperialists in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
