The Last Defenders of the Laager

Meer over het boek

The narrative explores the historical migration of the Afrikaners and their encounters with the Zulu people, highlighting the formation of the laager as a defensive strategy. Over time, the laager evolved into a powerful symbol of Afrikaner resilience amid adversity. The book also delves into the roles of Ian D. Smith and F. W. de Klerk as the final guardians of this legacy during a period marked by rising nationalism and civil unrest, ultimately leading to the collapse of colonial structures in Southern Africa.
