Robert Oakley Collins, historian of the Sudan, was born in 1933. His interest in Africa, and particularly the Upper Nile, began at Dartmouth College where he wrote his senior thesis on “Emin Pasha in
Equatoria” (1954). As a Marshall scholar, he continued to study African history at Balliol College, Oxford where he was awarded an MA in 1956. His doctoral thesis at Yale, which was completed in 1959, was on “The
Mahdist invasions of the Southern Sudan, 1883-1898”. It was later published as The Southern Sudan, 1883-1898. A struggle for control (Yale, 1962).
In the past 50 years he has published numerous books, articles and reviews and contributed to countless conferences. His most noted publications include
King Leopold, England and the Upper Nile (Yale, 1968), Land beyond the rivers. The Southern Sudan, 1898-1918 (Yale, 1981), Shadows in the grass: Britain in the
Southern Sudan, 1918-1956 (winner of the John Ben Snow prize for the best book in British studies, 1984) and The waters of the Nile: hydropolitics and the Jonglei Canal, 1900-1988 (OUP, 1990). Collaboration
with F.M. Deng produced The British in the Sudan, 1898-1956: the sweetness and the sorrow (Macmillan, 1984) and with J. Millard Burr, Requeim for the Sudan: war, drought and disaster relief on
the Nile (Westview Press, 1995) and Africa's thirty years' war: Libya, Chad and the Sudan, 1963-1993 (1999). His latest work, a history of the modern Sudan, is currently with Cambridge University Press.
Most of Robert Collins' academic career has been spent at the University of California Santa Barbara, where he was Professor of History 1969-1994, but he has been guest lecturer at three of Sudan's universities - Khartoum (where he is a Fellow of
the Institute for African and Asian Studies), Juba and the Gezira, as well as, among others, at the universities of Tel Aviv, Bergen, Oxford, Durham and Boston, and the School of Oriental and African Studies. He was a senior associate member of St
Antony's College, Oxford (1981, 1987 and 1989), Trevelyan Fellow, Durham University (1986) and Visiting Fellow, Balliol College, Oxford (1987). In 1980 he was awarded the Order of Sciences, Arts - Gold Class, by the Democratic Republic of Sudan for
services to Sudanese scholarship.
Numerous grants and awards have enabled him to return regularly to the Sudan to undertake research in the National Records Office, and in the archives of the South. He has also acted as consultant to the High Executive Council of Southern Sudan
Regional Government (1975-1983) and to Chevron Overseas Petroleum, Inc., (1981-1991).

The papers cover the whole of Professor Collins' academic career, from his undergraduate thesis to his most recent publication. Papers concerning his many publications are arranged chronologically, under the title of the thesis, book or article.
In addition to published works, there are large numbers of unpublished articles and conference papers, both by Professor Collins and fellow academics. His files of personal correspondence with a wide circle of friends, colleagues, academics,
students and former administrators, relate chiefly to research on the Sudan, but also contain much on contemporary political developments there.
In the course of many research trips. Professor Collins acquired a vast amount of primary source material, particularly on the South. Much of this is on microfilm, including copies of government files held in the National Records Office in
Khartoum. There are also some original papers of former administrators from the Condominium period, notably F.D. Corfield. There is much on the 1965 Round Table Conference on the South and on the Addis Ababa Agreement of 1972, while later papers of
the 1980s and 1990s provide information on Operation Lifeline Sudan and on relief and humanitarian work. The section of photographic material includes original 35mm slides taken by Professor Collins on research trips, as well as slides of images
from published and other sources acquired for teaching purposes. The collection has been arranged in the following sections:
