First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. In 1977, Johnson's best-selling How Long Will South Africa Survive? offered a controversial and highly original analysis of the survival prospects of apartheid. Now, after more than two decades of the ANC in government, he believes the question must be posed again. 'The big question about ANC rule,' Johnson writes, 'is whether African nationalism would be able to cope with the challenges of running a modern industrial economy. Twenty years of ANC rule have shown conclusively that the party is hopelessly ill-equipped for this task. Indeed, everything suggests that South Africa under the ANC is fast slipping backward and that even the survival of South Africa as a unitary state cannot be taken for granted. The fundamental reason why the question of regime change has to be posed is that it is now clear that South Africa can either choose to have an ANC government or it can have a modern industrial economy. It cannot have both.' ------------ 266 pages. Size: Approx 6" Wide - 9" Tall.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition, Fourth Printing. Afrikaans text. "Gewese leier van die opposisie en akademikus dr. Frederik van Zyl Slabbert is 'n Suid-Afrikaanse ikoon. Hy het 'n reuserol gespeel in die vreedsame oorgang in die land deur onder meer gesprek met die ANC in ballingskap van stapel te stuur. Sedertdien is hy prominent as politieke kommentator en in die sakewêreld. Hier vertel hy die oorgangsverhaal - van Dakar tot vandag toe - in sy kenmerkende geselstrant en sonder om doekies om te draai. Hy ontbloot die mites wat deur beide kante gepropageer is, sowel deur De Klerk as Mbeki, en tree direk in gesprek met Mbeki oor regeringsbeleid en wat die toekoms vir Suid-Afrika inhou. Duskant die gekiedenis bied lesers 'n kykie in wat regtig in die binnekringe van die politiek aangaan, van PW tot Mbeki." Size: Approx 5" Wide - 8" Tall.

Second impression, 2004 (first published in the UK by Weidenfeld & Nicolson 1979). Hardback. 660pp. Dust jacket. Thomas Pkenham has written the first full-scale documentary of the war to be attempted since 1910. His narrative is based on first-hand and often unpublished sources. This is a narrative as vivid and fast-moving as a novel. The war declared by the Boers on 11th October 1899 gave the British, as Kipling said, 'no end of a lesson'. The public expected it to be over by Christmas. It proved to be the longest (two and three -quarter years0, the costliest (over £00million), the bloodiest (at least 12,000 British, 25,000 Boer and 12,000 African lives) and the most humiliating war Britain fought between 1815 and 1914. The author exposes the crucial role of two of the 'gold-bugs' - the richest of the Rand millionaires - in precipitating the war. He throws light on the blunders of the British generals Sir Redvers Buller and Lord Roberts, revealing a personal feud between the two men and he writes movingly of the plight of about 100,000 black Africans who served both armies. He also explains the final political victory of the Boers - how they lost the war but won the peace - with far-reaching consequences for Europe and South Africa. 32 pages of black & white illustrations. Book in near fine condition and unread. The text block edges (mainly the lower region of the fore edge) have some staining which look rather like a mild coffee splash. The book is clean and unmarked internally. Dust jacket near fine and unclipped. Very small closed tear to foot of spine. A heavy book but no additional shipping costs to UK post codes. Book.

Soft Cover, Card Wrappers. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. On the back cover: From Schabir Shaik to The Spear, Jacob Zuma has been at the centre of controversy both before and after he became South Africa's citizen number one. As president, he has seemingly lurched from one bad decision to another. This explosive, roller-coaster account traces the unravelling of a likeable but deeply flawed leader who came to power as victim, not visionary. How did Zuma wriggle out of corruption charges to become president of the ANC and South Africa? Who provided him with the secret spy tapes that got him off the hook? And why did he appoint so many dubious characters to run key state institutions? As Zuma desperately tries to cling to power, award-winning journalist Adriaan Basson answers these and other questions in this gripping look at the president's dark side. --------------------------------------- 322 pages, b/w photographs, index ---------- Orders of $100.00 or more are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.

Soft cover. Condition: As New. First Edition. Mission to South Africa is the absorbing, blow-by-blow account of Robin Renwick's years as British ambassador to South Africa. Appointed as Margaret Thatcher's envoy in 1987, he arrived during the twilight of the PW Botha era, when the release of Nelson Mandela and the dismantling of apartheid seemed almost impossibly distant. In the course of his term, Lord Renwick became a personal friend of Nelson Mandela, FW de Klerk and Mangosuthu Buthelezi, and acted as a trusted intermediary between them. Mission to South Africa provides a unique insider's perspective on the end of apartheid and the dawn of democracy, and offers a nuanced and surprising portrait of Nelson Mandela. Lord Renwick's account is based on his own dispatches and information from hitherto unpublished Foreign Office and 10 Downing Street records. 183 pages including index ------------------ Orders over $100.00 are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
