This collection of letters from Henry M. Stanley published in 1898, present Henry's view of the then-current state of South Africa. It incorporates his views on the opportunities for the growing nation, highlights the bad management of its politicians, and the tension between the Dutch and English settlers.

It's a fascinating insight into a fledgling nation struggling to connect its dispersed provinces and feed its own people. All set in a time of expansion and struggle between the two major groups of settlers.
