SMUTS 1. THE SANGUINE YEARS 1879-1919 BY W. K. HANCOCK
Hardcover. Dust Jacket. 1st Edition. Published by The Syndics of the Cambridge University Press. 1962. 7 Illustrations. 4 Maps. 619 Pages.
" The first volume shows us the student, the young attorney, the general and the statesman, and takes us to Botha's death in 1919 when Smuts became Prime Minister of the Union of South Africa. War had absorbed over a third of his political life, yet peace-making and the struggle for unity were its central concern. As South Africa became a self-governing Dominion, Smuts sought to heal the Briton-Boer feud and the internal racial questions; his struggle with Ghandi makes a fascinating episode in this period. His practical experience and his ideas still remain relevant to our condition."
