"An off-beat anthology spanning four hundred years of travel in and around the southern tip of Africa. From early European seafarers making sometimes bloody contact with Khoikhoi at the Cape, to the era of railways, hotels and pass laws, The Wind Makes Dust takes us on an eccentric odyssey through the past. It parades a cast that includes soldiers and statesmen, cannibals both black and white, missionaries, elephant hunters, escaping slaves, circus showmen, fossil hunters, a shipwrecked Siamese mandarin and a homesick San shaman. It also contains instructions for cooking elephant's foot, some truly awful poetry, a quest for the unicorn, and a sprinkling of discreet sex.".…

In 1811 amid mounting dispute between differing cattle-herding peoples on the frontier, Graham, commanding a force of British regulars and Boer commandos from Swellendam, Graaff-Reinet and Uitenhage, was sent to undertake the task which was to define his military career: clearing around 20,000 Xhosa people led by Ndlambe ka Rharhabe. The Xhosa had settled in the Zuurveld (later called Albany), a district between the Bushman's and Fish rivers, which lay beyond the Cape Colony's frontiers. The Zuurveld was mistakenly assumed by the British to be part of the colony as they misread the frontier laid down by Governor Joachim van Plettenberg in 1778. The British campaign to push the Xhosa residents from the Eastern frontier was defined by Graham's plan to use "A proper degree of terror."The subsequent battle included the indiscriminate shooting of women and other civilians, as well as destruction of crops. By 1812 Graham's task was complete, and so on the deserted loan farm De Rietfontein, he established Graham's Town as Zuurveld's central military post, with a string of linked forts along the Fish River.
