So, by popular demand, I thought I’d explore this fascinating and, largely, forgotten conflict in a little more detail. The war in East Africa saw Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck commanding a small army of German colonial troops hold out against an allied army nearly 10x his size for the entire 4-yea war (1914-1918). Undefeated, he surrendered two weeks after the Armistice in Europe. This is the story of that war, against a man nicknamed the “Lion of Africa.” Chris Green is The History Chap; telling stories that brings the past to life.
