Table of ContentsReviewsTambo M'bayo's study of Muslim interpreters in colonial Senegal is an important contribution to a growing literature on the role African intermediaries played in the elaboration and operation of the colonial state. Of these intermediaries, the most important were the interpreters. M'bayo argues that they were important as cultural brokers, as diplomats and emissaries, as the voice of the regime, and as a source of information to colonial rulers about the peoples being governed. -- Martin Klein, University of Toronto, Emeritus Author InformationTamba M’bayo is assistant professor of history at West Virginia University.
