Can they ever become so? If not, does it not make more sense to reintegrate Natal and KwaZulu under some new dispensation? Should the Natal and KwaZulu region be treated as a special case in the search for solutions to South Africa's problems? Inspired by the developments of 1980, including the reports of the Quail and Lombard Commissions, and in addition the appointment of the Buthelezi Commission, a Workshop was held at the University of Natal (Durban) in October 1980 to consider these very issues. This book is an edited version of the papers presented at that Workshop .".

Charles D'Urban Morris (1827-1886) was a professor of Latin and Greek, teaching at John Hopkins University for a good part of his career. This letter is written to Howard Crosby (1826-1891) and is in reply to Crosby's request to Morris to evaluate Crosby's son's ability to write in English (as opposed to writing in Latin or Greek).
