Highlighting a region in central Congo called Kuba, the author provides not only accounts of colonial administrators, missionaries and traders, but also but the varied voices of a colonized people. Vansina uncovers the history revealed in local news, customs, gossip, and even dreams, as related by African villagers through archival documents, material culture and oral interviews.
