Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Boer and Britisher in South Africa: A History of the Boer-British War and the Wars for United South Africa, Together With Biographies, of the Great Men Who Made the History of South Africa In this book I have endeavored to give, in a concise and popular form, a clear, interesting, and valuable account of the historical, political and social developments of South Africa, as they have presented themselves to the world, from the beginning of the differences between the Boer and the Britisher; and further, I have been guided by the firm resolve to make all deductions from absolute facts, thereby assuring a truthful portrayal of the current events, and an unbiased and unprejudiced statement of all the important occurrences from the settlement of the Dutch at the Cape down to the present day. The people of South Africa are often judged wrongly, especially in England, where every one cannot rise to the unprejudiced point of view of the great Gladstone, who could appreciate the worth of these people, who, to preserve their freedom, left their former homes in Cape Colony and strove for an independent existence in the desolate, wild country inhabited only by hostile savages. In the beginning of their struggle for freedom the inhabitants of both the South African Republics, almost without exception, belonged to different Protestant communities. Though not, of course, without faults and prejudices - as is always the case with people who live in seclusion - they were generally men of severe morality, distinguished for the simplicity of their customs and the purity of their family life.
