About this book
In the tumultuous landscape of late 19th-century South Africa, as British imperial ambitions clashed with Boer independence, "De ruiters van Zuid-Afrika" by L. Penning immerses readers in the gripping events surrounding the Jameson Raid and the burgeoning tensions in Krugersdorp. This historical narrative follows Charles Marling, an Englishman caught in the crossfire of loyalty and conflict, as he navigates the complexities of colonial politics and personal allegiance. With vivid depictions of the era's strife and the spirit of the riders, this tale offers insights into the struggle for autonomy and identity. Ideal for historians and civic activists, this work illuminates the intricate dynamics of power and resistance during a pivotal moment in South African history.
