About This Item

(Johannesburg: Voortrekkerpers, 1971). 8vo; original pictorial boards; pictorial dustwrapper; pp. (xii) + 470; illustrated with numerous maps, photographs, tables. Dustwrapper partially sunned, a little rubbed, and edgeworn, with some archival tape repairs to reverse of edges; edges a trifle browned; occasional fox spot. Good to very good condition. Afrikaans text. One of the few one-man general histories of South Africa, in the tradition of S. F. N. Gie, E. A. Walker, and C. W. de Kiewiet. "Die voordeel van hierdie eenmangeskiedenis is eenvormigheid van styl, eenheid van visie en bou en daarby bondigheid, laasgenoemde veral wat die tydperk tot 1902 betref. … Die boek het 'n groeps-uitgangspunt: dis nie bloot 'n geskiedenis van blanke Suid-Afrika nie, maar behandel die ontstaan van en interaksie tussen die bevolkingsgroepe in 'n multi-nasionale of veelvolkige samelewing as geheel. Die kragte, lewensforme en leefwyse wat in die hede bestaan, word beskryf en hulle ontstaan en verloop in die verlede blootgelê. Ook word 'n interpretasie aangebied van wat in die jongste verlede en in die huidige tyd plaasgevind het, en nog aan die gang is, op nasionale sowel as internasionale terrein, waardeur die plek van die R.S.A. in die nuwe wêreld aan ons voorgestel word." .
