Book excerpt: The British Settlers that came to South Africa in 1820 made a permanent impression on the country. Unlike the previous settlers that came to South Africa under the Dutch rule, the British settlers were often well educated and grew up in a country that was relatively liberal. This meant that the expectations of their government were very different from the previous settlers. Their impact is most deeply seen in the Eastern Cape, but the list of settlers or their descendants that grew to prominence in the history of South Africa is long and distinguished.In this volume, we provide an opportunity for some of these settlers to tell their stories. There are also short biographies and histories of other aspects the lives of the settlers.The main part of this book is the recounting of the reminiscences of Rev HH Dugmore about the 1820 Settlers. It also includes letters from John Mandy to his mother in England, extracts from the reminiscences of Thomas Pringle and George Thompson. A recounting of the stories of James Reed and James Wheeler and Mrs Webb's encounter with raggy toothed sharks.This volume will provide you with first-hand accounts of these peoples lives Midst Africa's Southern Wilds.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from British South Africa: A History of the Colony of the Cape of Good Hope From Its Conquest 1795 to the Settlement of Albany by the British Emigration of 1819 (A. D. 1795 A. D. 1825); With Notices of Some of the British Settlers of 1820 The following pages are the outcome of a long-cherished wish to contribute to the stock of information respecting the British Settlement in the Colony of the Cape of Good Hope. What little there is of this portion of the history of the Colony is now antiquated, and no writer has given particulars of the British Settlers themselves, their experiences after arrival, and their troubles and trials before the severe sufferings they had to endure by successive Kafir wars. The history of these wars is full enough, in which the British military forces figure prominently with distinction, while the ruin of the Settlers themselves is hardly alluded to. Many circumstances prevented my attempting anything in this direction whilst resident in Graham's Town. It was not till quite the evening of my life, and retirement from the public service in Griqualand West, that sufficient freedom from the distractions of unceasing labour allowed of my making a commencement of the work, and it has been pursued under difficulties, amidst many cares and anxieties. The work, however, was one of interest to me, and the disadvantage of distance from Graham's Town and Cape Town - where ready access could be obtained to such works as it was necessary to read and consult by way of preparation for my task - was lightened by the numerous books on South Africa to be found on the shelves of the Kimberley Public Library within my reach. Kind friends also supplied me with the loan of such other publications relating to the Settler period which were not to be found in that excellent institution. The opportunity also presented itself to me about three years ago to pay a short visit to Cape Town, where, by the kind permission of the authorities, the original records of the past preserved in the archives could be examined, and from which copious notes and extracts were made to serve my purpose.

Book excerpt: British Settlers of 1820 The impact of the 1820 Settlers on South Africa has been immense. Their likes included great statesmen, fighters for civil rights and other people who made South Africa what it is today (for good and bad). Why were these settlers so important? They were a very large homogeneous group that came from a far more liberal population than what had been in South Africa. The Dutch/German immigrants from the VOC (Dutch East Indies) period were literally employees. They then asked permission to stay in the country and many tried to get as far away from the "Company" as they could. The educational opportunities were almost non-existent, especially in frontier areas. Very few were people were literate. The VOC was trying to make profits not educate their people. In the colony, before British rule, the population had very few civil rights and almost no representation in government. These British Settlers were generally well educated (As can be seen in some of the parts of this book). They believed in a free press and representative government. They came to South Africa to act as a buffer in the border areas but ended up changing the colony in fundamental ways. We provide an opportunity for some of these settlers to tell their stories. There are also short biographies and histories of other aspects the lives of the settlers. The main part of this book is the recounting of the reminiscences of Rev HH Dugmore about the 1820 Settlers. It also includes letters from John Mandy to his mother in England, extracts from the reminiscences of Thomas Pringle and George Thompson. A recounting of the stories of James Reed and Mrs Webb's encounter with raggy toothed sharks are also included. This volume will provide you with first-hand accounts of these peoples lives Midst Africa's Southern Wilds. In this year, which is the 200 year anniversary of the British Settlers of 1820 coming to South Africa, a book of this nature is apt. We hope that you will enjoy the selection of texts we have put together.
