BWANA WA POLISI

Bwana wa Polisi

By Christopher Bean

Christopher Bean

 

The Story of a Policeman's Life in England, Nyasaland and Bechuanaland, 1952–1967

 

R150.00

 

ISBN: 978-1-920143-92-3

Paperback / 188 pages 30 b/w photos

History / African Studies / Memoirs

 

 

Christopher Bean was born into a police family in Yorkshire and joined the West Riding Constabulary as a cadet in 1952. For the next fifteen years or so he continued a career in the police service, in the Royal Corps of Military Police, the West Riding Constabulary, the Nyasaland Police and finally the Bechuanaland Protectorate Police.

 

This account re-lives his experiences of those years, many of which are difficult to believe in these relatively enlightened days, and which often humorously outline life in Africa some half a century ago.

 

Although the story starts in the Britain of the 1950s, it leads into a post-war Africa, with independence arriving in most of Africa and illustrating the enormous difference in police work in the UK in those days, and the exciting life of a colonial police officer.
