Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise of South Africa, Vol. 1 of 4: A History of the Origin of South African IT has been said that History unenlightened by Philosophy is no better than an Old almanac. This surely cannot man that the sirnple narration Of the events which have led to, or in themselves may have been so many steps in, the development of a country, is without value. It is sincerely hoped that this is not so, for in the present work there will be found nothing Of the nature Of a philosophical disquisition on the springs Of human con duct, or on the origin and growth Of civil society, nor any views respecting the right principles to be adopted in the formation and government of Colonies; yet it is believed that a straightforward. Unbiassed account Of the circumstances Of hardship, endurance and perseverance under which the Eastern Province took its rise and con tinned to struggle for so many years will be read with interest, and the lack Of philosophy pardoned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Life Time in South Africa: Being the Recollections of the First Premier of Natal The pages which follow are not intended in any way to deal exhaustively with what is known as The South African Problem. They claim to be nothing more than a series of cameos of the past, extending back over a period of fifty years, and covering the life and growth of a British Colony from its birth to the developments of to-day. It is hoped that these sketches (some of which have already appeared in the pages of Cornhill Magazine) may serve to show not only how the Empire of Great Britain has been and is being extended in the wild places of the earth, but how valid and unassailable is the title by which that Empire holds its position of paramountcy in South Africa.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of South Africa: From the Earliest Days to Union This volume embodies an attempt to supply a want felt as much by the general reader as the student. Hitherto there has been available no single work setting forth South Africa's story in a connected form. The book does not pretend to be the result of original research. It is almost wholly founded upon the standard histories - more especially those of Dr. Theal and Professor Cory - and Leibbrandt's precis of the Archives. The limitations of space have not only made it difficult to deal adequately with many significant episodes, but have rendered necessary the exclusion of such important subjects as the rise of the great Zulu Power under Tshaka and the dispersal of Bantu Tribes which followed. The Author's aim has been to produce a concise, consecutive narrative, suitable as an introduction to those voluminous detailed histories in which so much erudition has been displayed and upon which so much industry has been expended.

D. 1497-1910 The compiler of a book of verse bearing on South African history will perhaps be said to have a some what limited field of operations; and the field, on examination, is really more limited than it looks. Taking the landing of Van Riebeek at the Cape in 16 52 as the starting-point1 of European expansion in the southern portion of the continent, the history of South Africa', from the European point of View, for a century and a half thereafter is the history of the fortunes and expansion of the Dutch settlement at the Cape, which at the end of that period includes but a fraction of the area of the Cape Province as it is today. Not until so recently as the middle of the nineteenth century or thereby, with the foundation of the Overberg republics and the colonization of Natal, does South Africa' approximate to the territorial limits which the present generation associates with it. To-day we sometimes include loosely in the term not merely the area embraced by the Union but the great territory of Rhodesia as well; in other words, the Whole of British South Africa.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of a South African Pioneer (1st Series "Wanderjahre") The period mainly. Dealt with is that magical one when South Africa-unnoted and obscure was startled from the simplicity of her bucolic life by the discovery. Of gold and diamonds. This was, of course, some years before the fountains of her boundless potential wealth had become fully unsealed. I was one of that band of light-hearted, haphazard pioneers who, rejoicing in youthful energy and careless of their own interests, unwittingly laid the foundation upon which so many great fortunes have been built. An ancient my.th relates how. The god Dionysus decreed that everything touched by Midas, the Phrygian king, should turn into gold, but the effect was so disastrous that Midas begged for a reversal of the decree. The prayer was granted, conditionally upon the afflicted king bathing in the River Pactolus. South Africa may, in a sense, he paralleled with Midas - both as regards the bane of gold and the antidote of bathing - but her Pactolus has been one of blood.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pioneers in South Africa I have been asked to write a series of works which should deal with real adventures, in parts of the world either wild and uncontrolled by any civilized government, or at any rate regions full of dangers, of wonderful discoveries; in which the daring and heroism of white men (and sometimes of white women) stood out clearly against backgrounds of unfamiliar landscapes, peopled with strange nations, savage tribes, dangerous beasts, or wonderful birds. These books would again and again illustrate the first coming of the white race into regions inhabited by people of a different type, with brown, black, or yellow skins; how the European was received, and how he treated these races of the soil which gradu ally came under his rule owing to his superior knowledge, weapons, wealth, or powers of per suasion. The books were to tell the plain truth, even if here and there they showed the white man to have behaved badly, or if they revealed the fact that the American Indian, the Negro, the Malay, the black Australian was sometimes cruel and treacherous.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise of South Africa, Vol. 3 of 4: A History of the Origin of South African Colonisation and of Its Development Towards the East From the Earliest Time to 1857 From 1793 to 1797 there was a complete lull in the Cape slave trade; the circumstances of the times putting a stop to all importation of human chattels. Thus the Cape labour market received a severe check, and clamour for servants became loud on all sides. In 1797, however, in consequence of the most urgent representations which had been made to him, General Craig sanctioned the landing of 350 slaves from a Portuguese vessel from Mozambique, which was then at anchor in Table Bay. These were eagerly seized at public auction and at high prices. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
