Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thoughts on South Africa But certain parts of this book have appeared in periodicals and have caused, no doubt owing to the frag mentary nature of their publication, some misconceptions which it might be worth while setting right. It has been stated by some kindly critic that the subject of this little book was a valuable history of South Africa, while another has suggested my calling it The History of the Boer. Nothing has been farther from my thought than the writing of any history. In a far different manner I Should have equipped myself had it been my intention to do so. Dr. Ea in his has collected as carefully and dealt as ably with the mere historical inci dents of the last two hundred years as it is possible for any one person, in the course of one life, and from one point of view, to do. Still less, as has been suggested, was it my intention to write a homily on South African problems and people. This little book is something far less pretentious, and wholly different. Born in South Africa, I felt from my childhood a wish to set down what I thought and felt about my native land. After I was grown Up, but in my youth, I went to Europe for ten years, living in London but visiting the Continent continually.

Download or read book Pleasure and Problem in South Africa Classic Reprint written by Cecil Bisshopp Harmsworth and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pleasure and Problem in South Africa The political articles stand, of course, on a different footing. Here the bias of the writer is certain to show itself, and it is not claimed for the political views herein expressed that they are free from partiality. The man who, after the last ten or fifteen years of passionate controversy, carries with him to South Afi'ica a perfectly open mind is a ram avis indeed. What is essential is that there should be no intrusion on the part of the visitor from Home into those departments of colonial affairs that do not concern him. It is trusted that in the whole of the following narrative nothing has been said that can by any possibility wound the just susceptibilities of our fellow-subjects, whether British or Dutch, in South Africa. Where a controversial attitude is assumed it will be found that the writer's opinion is backed by South African opinion of the highest respectability.
