John Stonehouse – Prohibited Immigrant – First Edition 1960
£125.00
First edition, first printing. Published by Bodley Head in London, 1960. This is a near fine copy. The bright front panel has some handling marks and very slight wear at the corners. The spine is sunned. It has not been price clipped and retains the 21s net price. The boards are tight and free from notable wear, aside from some slight bumping to the tail of the spine. The text blocks are immaculate, though perhaps slightly toned at the top. This copy is free from previous owners ink. It is a near fine copy.
On March 3rd, 1959, John Stonehouse, M.P. was deported from the British Protectorate of Northern Rhodesia by the immigration authorities of the Central African Federation. This was the climax of a tour in which he set out to study at first hand political and economic conditions in the three territories. He was about to visit Nyasaland. But a State of Emergency had just been declared in that territory, following government allegations of a ‘massacre plot’ against Europeans; and some white politicians and newspapers made out that he had been inciting the Africans to violence.’
