Book excerpt: 'The poacher didn't shoot her. Bullets cost money and a shot might alert the rangers. . . On the third night, after enduring more agony than any man or beast should ever have to face, the rhinoceros took one last shuddering breath, heaved her flanks painfully, and sought refuge in the silky blackness of death.' In 1945, on a train bound for Zululand, two soldiers meet on the way home to their families, the war in Europe finally over. But in South Africa there are many more battles still to be fought. The seeds of apartheid are being sown in an angry nation, the fate of the Zulu people is as precarious as that of the endangered black rhinoceros, hunted for its horn. The soldiers on the train are already sworn enemies-one is black, the other white. Their sons, Michael King and Dyson Mpande, share a precious friendship that defies race and colour. But political greed, lust and a great evil between their families will test their friendship beyond imaginable limits.

Book excerpt: For over hundred and fifty years, a new King was hidden away, a boy never seen by even his people and raised by two different groups of protectors chosen by the ancestors. This King would be the first of his line to protect his people. This was the first King to ever wear and use iShaka or Zudium in Western terms and born of man and a god. This half man, half god King was to be tested and prepared for the first contact with monsters from across the seas or simply Europeans, preparing his successor's path even better. Born of Shaka and a daughter of a farmer whose name remains a secret, Zett for Zulu or traditionally known as Shaka Zulu, uMkhuseli ka Zulu, son of Shaka ka Nguni, the protector of the Heaven People, both in heaven and on Earth, achieved immortality through the teachings of his protectors, something his father, Shaka ka Nguni did not have enough time to learn. During this time, the Heaven People were going through a very difficult time of their lives as they had killed their protector for power. This was because of lack of unity from within the African people. The enemy divided them and conquered. Many other African people were already slaves as Europeans or monsters like their prophecies foretold, had made contact with them hundreds of years before they met any of the Nguni people or the last of his kind, Zulus. At the time monsters landed on the shores of Africa, African people had customs and ways of life that were very precious. They could not even share their knowledge with other African people, especially ones speaking a different language or from a different tribe. They were very secretive about their knowledge that they did not share it in ways that could lead it into the wrong hands. Some cultures such as the Xhosas and Zulus, still try as hard as they can to keep what they do to young men in the mountains, a secret. This knowledge is verbally passed down only to or between those who make it to the mountain.

Download or read book The Zulus at War written by Adrian Greaves and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By tracing the long and turbulent history of the Zulus from their arrival in South Africa and the establishment of Zululand, The Zulus at War is an important and readable addition to this popular subject area. It describes the violent rise of King Shaka and his colorful successors under whose leadership the warrior nation built a fearsome fighting reputation without equal among the native tribes of South Africa. It also examines the tactics and weapons employed during the numerous intertribal battles over this period. They then became victims of their own success in that their defeat of the Boers in 1877 and 1878 in the Sekunini War prompted the well-documented British intervention. Initially the might of the British empire was humbled as never before by the shock Zulu victory at Isandlwana but the 1879 war ended with the brutal crushing of the Zulu Nation. But, as Adrian Greaves reveals, this was by no means the end of the story. The little known consequences of the division of Zululand, the Boer War, and the 1906 Zulu Rebellion are analyzed in fascinating detail. An added attraction for readers is that this long-awaited history is written not just by a leading authority but, thanks to the coauthor’s contribution, from the Zulu perspective using much completely fresh material. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in history--books about World War II, the Third Reich, Hitler and his henchmen, the JFK assassination, conspiracies, the American Civil War, the American Revolution, gladiators, Vikings, ancient Rome, medieval times, the old West, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.

Download or read book The Man of Heaven and the Beautiful Ones of God written by Elizabeth Gunner and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-08 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of Africans in the growth and process of Christianity in South Africa in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. In particular the book provides an insight into the role of writing and literacy in the church founded by the South African prophet, Isaiah Shembe, in 1910. The book provides a substantial, contextualising introduction which includes discussion of the church’s history and its position in contemporary South Africa, and weaves in discussion of the topics of literacy and modernity. The book then moves to the three documents, presented in their language of composition, Zulu and in an English translation. The three ‘books’, each from Shembe’s Nazareth Baptist Church, provide the reader with a fascinating insight into the growth and organisation of one of southern Africa’s most influential African Churches, and into the use and interpretation of the Bible by the church’s founder, Isaiah Shembe, and by church members. Central to the writings is the complex presence of Shembe, present both through his own words in the first book and, in the second book, through the memory of Meshack Hadebe, a member of the church in the 1920’s and 1930’s. The extracts in the third book provide a glimpse of the church’s hymnal and the unique religious poetry of the hymns, authored by Shembe.

Download or read book Maulana Karenga written by Molefi Kete Asante and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-04-24 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the most prolific contemporary African American scholar and cultural theorist Molefi Kete Asante leads the reader on an informative journey through the mind of Maulana Karenga, one of the key cultural thinkers of our time. Not only is Karenga the creator of Kwanzaa, an extensive and widespread celebratory holiday based on his philosophy of Kawaida, he is an activist-scholar committed to a "dignity-affirming" life for all human beings. Asante examines the sources of Karenga's intellectual preoccupations and demonstrates that Karenga's concerns with the liberation narratives and mythic realities of African people are rooted in the best interests of a collective humanity. The book shows Karenga to be an intellectual giant willing to practice his theories in order to manifest his intense emotional attachment to culture, truth and justice. Asante's enlightening presentation and riveting critique of Karenga's works reveal a compelling account of a thinker whose contributions extend far beyond the Academy. Although Karenga began his career as a student activist, a civil rights leader, a Pan Africanist, and a culturalist, he ultimately succeeds in turning his fierce commitment to truth toward dissecting political, social, and ethical issues. Asante carefully analyzes Karenga's important works on Black Studies, but also his earlier works on culture and his later works on ethics, such as The Husia, and Odu Ifa: The Ethical Teachings.
