'Exterminate All the Brutes'

Written in the form of a travel diary and a historical examination of European racism over the past two hundred years, this book offer a unique study of Europe's dark history in Africa. Lindqvist argues that the harrowing racism that led to the Holocaust in the 20th century had its roots in the European colonial policies of the preceding century and raises questions uniquely appropriate to the current American debate on the depth and costs of racism today.*
