The peaks of Tanzania's ancient Usambara Mountains are smaller and more weathered than the fabled Kilimanjaro, but through peculiarities of physical geography they are home to remarkably diverse forest flora and fauna as well as considerable small-scale farming. Highland Sanctuary is the first historical study of the strikingly different environmental histories of the East and West Usambaras and a significant contribution to global environmental history. Christopher A. Conte explores the changing ecological and economic perspectives of German and British colonial officials, settlers, and scientists, on the one hand, and African farmers and pastoral-ists, on the other. He unravels the complex interactions between agriculture, herding, forestry, the colonial state, and the landscape itself. His examination of the region's history of ecological transformation shows how these forces have combined to create an ever-changing mosaic of forest and field. Conte illuminates the ongoing debate over conservation of the mountains' resources, arguing that contingency and chance and human agency have shaped forests in ways that rival the power of nature. For more than a century, the world has recognized the extraordinary biological diversity of the forests of Tanzania's Usambara Mountains. International attention focused on forest conservation has led farmers, foresters, biologists, and the Tanzanian state to realize that only complex negotiations will save these treasured, but rapidly disappearing, landscapes.
