Diary of a Colonial Wife: An African Experience

Lady Joan Sharwood-Smith

This is an account of the life of a colonial service wife in Nigeria between 1939 and 1957. The book aims to counteract the commonly-held stereotype of the colonial memsahib as haughty and racist and reveals the author’s concern for social welfare in Nigeria. The book is a companion to Sir Bryan Sharwood-Smith’s But Always Friends .
