South African Despatches is not just a book about journalism or journalists. The despatches, all written from South Africa have been published both in this country and abroad between the years 1825 and 1988. The book does not purport to be a history although it deals with significant events in the history of South Africa. It is rather a collection of well-written despatches or despatches typical of a particular genre of writing with a story woven round the despatch.
