Illustrated with black and white photographs. These diaries are a candid record of eight years of triumph and frustration in the reform and development of an African colony. They also reflect wider events: the struggle between British imperialism and Afrikaner nationalism inSouth Africa, the impact of the depression and the shadow of the coming war.
