The African Giant - the Story of a Giant (Hardcover) - Cloete, Stuart

That the giant is waking there is no doubt, and our need to assess his purpose and his potential strength has become urgent. Stuart Cloete, whose books have been one of the richest and most entertaining sources of our knowledge of South Africa, writes now of a year's travel, accompanied by his wife, from the Cape to the deserts of the north. In this we face the paradoxes of the Dark Continent, hear the testimony of emirs and missionaries, of career diplomats and native doctors, and see that the overwhelming problem of education of the African - particularly the African woman - towers above all the others challenging that uneasy land.
