King Leopold's Congo and the "Scramble for Africa" by Michael A Rutz

-Jelmer Vos, University of Glasgow
"Rutz has assembled an excellent collection of excerpts from contemporary sources for the history of King Leopold of Belgium's Congo Free StateThe collection includes key documents and the familiar voices of the Free State's European and American critics, as well as much less well-known African voices. These sources will be very useful to understanding the history of one of the most egregious and notorious regimes in colonial Africa."
—David Northrup, Emeritus, Boston College
"Rutz fulfills his objective of providing an excellent collection of historical documents for introductory courses, and scholars teaching the topic will find in his book a useful resource for their classes."
—Marcos Leitão de Almeida, Northwestern University, in African Studies Review
