Item description from seller
Octavo, 351pp, [1]. Green cloth, title stamped in gilt. The first English language edition, as stated on the copyright page. Preceded by the "Afrikaans Edition," published March, 1928. Internally clean, solid text block. American Embassy stamp on the front free endpaper. Complete with frontispiece portrait of General Botha, 26 illustrations and four maps. In the publisher's dust jacket, short closed tear along front hinge, light soiling to the spine, a very good example. Louis Botha (1862-1919) was the first Prime Minister of the Union of South Africa from 1910 until his death. Known for his pragmatism, he shifted from military resistance to political reconciliation, cooperating with Britain to stabilize the new state. His leadership helped define South Africa's early institutions and its decision to fight alongside Britain in World War I.
