Book excerpt: Excerpt from Through South Africa With the British Association During the course of the trip described in these pages I kept a fragmentary diary of the chief events as they occurred.

This I have attempted to do in the following pages. At intervals I have added certain re ections that were impressed upon me during the journey, when the incidents that brought them up were fresh in my mind.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ten Years in South Africa: Only Complete and Authentic History of the British German Legion in South Africa and the East Indies We thanked him very much for his kindness, and af ter receiving the above articles we made haste to put as much space between ourselves and this farmer as possible. Late in the evening we reached a city and pretty soon we made ourselves comfortable in a tavern usually frequented by men of our style. In a few hours there came two more wandering mechanics, like ourselves, into the tavern, who complained loudly of the way they had been abused and their clothes ruined by dogs upon the premises of a farmer, be cause some other tramps had spoilt his rubber boots by pouring pea soup into them. We of course knew all about it, but were smart enough not to say anything. Occasionally I would strike a town and ask for work, and I may say that I never had any trouble getting work.

This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Geography of British South Africa In this book I have tried to describe in a simple way the main geographical features of British South Africa. In doing so it is impossible to avoid altogether the history of past quarrels, but in mentioning them I have endeavoured to be fair, and to keep clear of political controversies which are still hot. I have not thought it wise to go into any statistics. These pass out of date almost as speedily as they slip from the memory. But the physical features of the land, its climate and resources, the character of its inhabitants, its flora and fauna, its industries and occupations are more or less abiding. To these I have given most space. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peace or War in South Africa The increasing luxury and the rise in the price of the necessities of life drove our public men to seek sources of revenue which their forefathers would have scorned. The sale of public offices, of seats in Parliament, and of influence, had created a system of jobbery so gigantic that it is to-day almost impossible to appreciate its far-reaching effects. The Paymaster of the Forces thought it no disgrace to use hundreds of thousands of pounds Of the public money for private ends; Ministers did not Shrink from Open bribery, from receiving fees and percentages, and from sharing the profit on contracts of every kind.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pictorial History of South Africa The new rulers of the Cape soon found themselves at loggerheads with the colonists - not only with the old-established Dutch burghers, who naturally had no sym pathy with the regime, but also with the British settlers who were now streaming into the country. The Albany settlers of 1820, who had been accustomed in England and Scotland to relatively democratic institutions, were in no mood to submit to the dictates of autocratic governors; and, after an heroic struggle to establish themselves in the new land, many of them played an important part in a prolonged agitation for freedom of the Press and representative institutions - demands which the government was forced to concede, inch by inch.
