In search of a better life: a story of Croatian settlers in Southern Africa

T.A. Mursalo

ISBN 10: 0620050055 ISBN 13: 9780620050050

This book, which describes the history and lives of a tiny ethnic and cultural minority of South Africans, is rare. It remains interesting, however, not only for its stated purpose of opening a window on this small community but for the tapestry its early chapters paint of the constituent parts of the then Yugoslavia, which has in more recent years been broken up again. The first Croatians came to South Africa in the 1870s, mainly to work on diamond mines and, later, on goldmines.

The author has been able to source more than thirty interesting photographs, which, with several maps, are printed with the ix + 201 pp of text.

Some wear, foxing and age-toning. PLEASE CHECK IMAGES FOR CONDITION
