Season 3 Episode 30 - The War of the Golden Stool (Part 2)

<p>As the War of the Golden Stool intensifies, the British suffer their biggest defeat in Ghana since Nsamankow at the Battle of Kokofu. Despite this unexpected defeat, the British re-evaluate their strategy and, between a daring escape attempt by the colonial governor and a readjustment of battlefield strategy, the British manage to reverse their floundering war effort. But even if the war is a defeat, that doesn&apos;t make it a loss. The tough fighting of the War of the Golden Stool will leave a lasting impression on both the Ashanti and the British. The war&apos;s legacy will ensure the survival not only of the Ashanti nation and monarchy, but the survival of traditional monarchies all of British Africa.</p><strong><a href='https://www.buzzsprout.com/1999792' target='_blank'>History Analyzed</a></strong><br>History Analyzed is a podcast which investigates both history's biggest moments and...<br><p>Listen on: <a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1632161929' target='_blank'>Apple Podcasts</a> &nbsp; <a href='https://open.spotify.com/show/6yoHz9s9JPV51WxsQMWz0d' target='_blank'>Spotify</a></p><a rel="payment" href="https://patreon.com/historyofafrica">Support the show</a>
