A young boy with British officers in Kumasi, 1874

The last in Kumasi - a young boy eating bananas while a British officer tries to talk to him. In the background, the British troops are marching away. In 1873, after decades of an uneasy relationship between the British and the Acing people of central Ghana, the British attacked and virtually destroyed the Asanti capital of Kumasi, and officially declared Ghana a crown colony on 24 July 1874
