Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the causes of political unrest in the Transvaal region of South Africa in the late 19th century. The author probes the decisions and events that led to violence between the Boers and British, and between various native tribes. The author argues that the turmoil was caused by an indecisive Royal Commission and manipulative British officials who mishandled negotiations and cavalierly ignored both treaties and native concerns. The author uses official documents to support the argument that the borders determined by the Commission were unfair and resulted in unnecessary suffering. This book is a timely and invaluable text for scholars researching South African history and politics, and for readers interested in the root causes of ethnic conflict. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331824985_0
