Book excerpt: Excerpt from Briton Boer and Black: Or Ten Years' Hunting, Trading and Prospecting in South Africa This simple and unpretending narrative of travel, trade, and adventure in South Africa may serve the purpose for which the Author has written it, viz., to let the English people understand some of the dangers and difficulties faced by the pioneer in South Africa. It may also help to shed light on the character of the natives both in peace and war, and their commercial and domestic methods, while it should certainly afford considerable insight into the ways of the still little understood Boer. If the British Government and the Colonial authorities are fair and firm in their dealings with the Boers and natives alike, there is no need to despair of the future of South Africa. Weak and irresolute I methods and undue interference by the Imperial authorities, as well as ignorant and inflammatory speeches by British politicians, are most dangerous to our supremacy in a country which is already teeming with disaffection among both Boers and Blacks.
