Growing Up In 'White' South Africa

Growing up in White South Africa is a delightful journey back into the past that brings alive an era that should resonate with those who lived through it, and fascinate those who didn't.

The author captures the sounds, smells, nuances, events and special characteristics of a post-war age that remain etched in his memory. His poignant recounting of the period of his youth against the background of a world that was rapidly undergoing change both at home and abroad is imbued with touches of humour, that comes with a retrospective view of the follies of youth.
