Product Description
Synopsis
This study of the colonial Portuguese regime's economic policy in Mozambique shows how nearly a million African peasants were forced to grow cotton. It explores the lives of these coton producers, through interviews with former cotton growers and their families, as well as African policemen and overseers, and Portuguese settlers, merchants, missionaries and officials.
