The Life and Correspondence of Sir Bartle Frere is a two-volume biography written by John Martineau and published in 1895. The book details the life and career of Sir Bartle Frere, a prominent British colonial administrator and diplomat who served in various capacities in India, South Africa, and East Africa during the 19th century.Volume 1 of the biography covers Frere's early life and education, his early career in India, and his role in the Indian Mutiny of 1857. It also covers his time as Governor of Bombay from 1862 to 1867, during which he oversaw significant social and economic reforms.Volume 2 of the biography covers Frere's later career as High Commissioner for Southern Africa from 1877 to 1880, during which he played a key role in the annexation of the Transvaal and the subsequent First Boer War. It also covers his time as Commissioner for East Africa from 1883 to 1886, during which he oversaw the establishment of British protectorates over several African states.The book draws heavily on Frere's personal correspondence, providing insight into his thoughts, motivations, and relationships with other prominent figures of his time. It also includes detailed accounts of the political and social contexts in which Frere operated, shedding light on the complexities and challenges of British colonial rule in the 19th century.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
