"Sir Bartle Frere a Footnote to the History of the British Empire" is a compelling biographical study that examines the life and career of one of the most influential yet polarizing figures in Victorian imperial history. Author Basil Worsfold provides a detailed account of Frere's service across the globe, with a particular focus on his transformative and often controversial tenure as High Commissioner for Southern Africa. The work explores the administrative vision behind the efforts to create a South African confederation and analyzes the political climate that led to the Anglo-Zulu War, offering a nuanced perspective on the challenges of colonial governance.

The narrative also covers Frere's significant contributions in India, illustrating his dedication to the expansion and stability of British interests. By detailing his interactions with both local leaders and the British government, Worsfold highlights the tension between the man on the ground and the shifting policies of the metropole. This book stands as an essential historical record for readers seeking to understand the intricacies of 19th-century diplomacy, the expansion of the British Empire, and the legacy of a statesman whose actions shaped the course of modern South African history.
