Abstract: The Colony of the Cape of Good Hope stood in 1834 as a bastion of European culture along the southern tip of the vast continent of Africa. Though it had passed from the hands of its founders, the Dutch East India Company, the Cape remained important primarily as a strategic link along the sealanes to the Orient. This book is about the 1834 South African history.
