When Zambia became Independent in 1964, the white colonial population did not suddenly evaporate. Some had supported Independence, others had virulently opposed it, but all had to reappraise their nationality, residence and careers. A few became Zambian citizens and many more chose to stay a while without committing themselves, but most of the colonial population trickled out of the country to start again.

Remnants of Empire traces survivors of this population globally and through cyber-space to discover how new lives were constructed and new perspectives generated. It also draws on the power of postcolonial memory to understand the ways that copper miners, district officers, housewives and others became the empire's relics. The author is a Social Anthropologist with a background in colonial Northern Rhodesia and a love of contemporary Zambia.
