Turning Wheels vividly recaptures the Voortrekkers valiant struggle for survival in the vast and hostile African bush. The loves, hates, sorrows and victories of men and women whose inflexible beliefs led them in search of a Promised Land provide a fast-moving tale of adventure and action.
With a fine historians eye Stuart Cloete presents characters convinced of their rights, courageous against overwhelming odds, lit by the domestic background of the trekkers life.
In Hendrik van der Berg and his convoy are found the burning desire for land, the urge for freedom and the passions one woman aroused in three men; their fates inextricably linked to a climactic end, a history and a heritage.
