Cape of Good Hope, correspondence between the Government of the Cape Colony and Her Majesty's Government relating to the Rising in Bechuanaland, "Cape Times" Printing Works, 1897, original, stapled binding, 25 pages, complete, 22.3 cms x 34.3 cms, condition: as new.
The "Rising in Bechuanaland" refers to conflicts and tensions in the Bechuanaland region during the late 19th century, particularly involving British colonial authorities, Boer settlers, and various African groups. 
Correspondence between the Cape Colony government and Her Majesty's Government in Britain sheds light on the complex political landscape and the challenges of maintaining order and control in the area. In 1896, the Crown Colony of British Bechuanaland experienced a rebellion, known as the Langeberg Rebellion, against the Cape Colony's annexation the previous year. The  Rebellion (Rising) was waged by two Tswana groups: the Batlhaping and the Batlharo, against British settlers in all of Griqualand area of the Northern Cape. The Rebellion was triggered when the baTswana groups became suspicious about the intentions of the Cape Colonial government as they feared that they would lose land. The Rebellion consisted of a series of revolts between December 1896 and August 1897 against British land annexations in the Griqualand area. The Rebellion was led by chiefs Kgosi Luka Jantjie and Kgosi Galeshewe of the Batlhaping and chief Toto Makgolokwe of the Batlharo.
