"The Transvaal: cradle of mankind; gold, greed and the explosion of Johannesburg; Louis Trichardt and the Voortrekkers; Oom Paul Kruger, father of the Boers. And always conflict - tribe against tribe when Mzilikazi scourged the Soutpansberg; tribe against trekker when both fought for the land; Boer against Briton in 1880 and again in 1899. From pre-history to the present day, Transvaal Epic unfolds the saga. The canvas is broad; the array of text, paintings, sketches and photographs both evocative and informative. This is a book to read, to keep, and to read again." Click here for full details of this book, to ask a question or to buy it on-line.
