In "Bad Colonists", Nicholas Thomas and Richard Eves provide a window into the fantasies and realities of colonial life by presenting separate sets of letters by two late nineteenth-century British colonists of the South Pacific: Vernon Lee Walker and Louis Becke. Thomas and Eves frame the letters - addressed mostly to the colonists' mothers - with commentary that explores colonial degeneration in the South Pacific. Using critical anthropology and theories of history, they examine the process whereby men and women eroded in the midst of the hot, violent, uncivil colonial milieu.Both collections vividly evoke the day-to-day experiences of ordinary late nineteenth-century colonists and open up new questions concerning the making and writing of selves on the colonial periphery. Exposing insecurities in an epoch normally regarded as one of imperial triumph, "Bad Colonists" will appeal to students and scholars of anthropology, colonial history, cultural studies, and Pacific history and culture.
