The Pearl Of Africa

Sir. Winston Churchill

Sir. Winston Churchill in his book "My African Journey" is quoted ; “My journey is at an end, the tale has been told. The reader who has followed so faithfully and so far has a right to ask what message I bring back. It can be stated in three words: Concentrate Upon Uganda

My counsel plainly is – Concentrate Upon Uganda; Nowhere else in Africa will little money go so far? Nowhere else will results be more brilliant, more substantial or more rapidly realized. Uganda is from end to end a ‘beautiful garden’ where ‘staple food’ of the people grows almost without labor. Does it not sound like a paradise on earth? It is the Pearl of Africa (Churchill 1908).
