Bruce Gilley
In Defense of German Colonialism: And How Its Critics Empowered Nazis, Communists, and the Enemies of the West
Washington, DC: Regnery Gateway, 2022

Bruce Gilley is a professor who was heavily criticized by a Maoist mob after he wrote an article entitled “The Case for Colonialism.” In his latest book, he takes a look at the much maligned German colonial empire, which stretched from Africa to Asia and even into the South Pacific until the the end of the First World War.
