There are few South Africans, of whatever political outlook, who do not respect the memory of this great South African. From his earliest days, his life in Kimberley, the Boer War, his political career, to his end as a bitter and disappointed man, the story unfolds. His government isolated Africans from the political process and laid the groundwork for the separatist apartheid system, which allowed the white minority to oppress blacks. The author – Oswald Pirow – was his confidant and lifelong friend.
