Paperback. Condizione: Good. It is January 1979. Groups of nervous, dutiful white conscripts begin their National Service with Rhodesia's security forces. Ian Smith's minority regime is in its dying days and negotiations towards majority rule are already under way. For these inexperienced eighteen-year-olds, there is nothing to do but go on fighting, hold the line while the transition happens around them. This is a textured memoir in which an ordinary troopie grapples with unique dilemmas presented by an extraordinary period in history: the spectres of inner violence and death; the pressurised arrival of manhood; and the place of conscience, friendship and beauty in the pervasive atmosphere of futile warfare.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The image of the elephant can be found throughout world religions and cultures as a symbol of intelligence, strength and loyalty. In this book Daniel Wylie draws on a rich array of cultural examples to document that symbolic power, ranging from religious iconography for the Hindu god of wisdom, Ganesh, to beloved childrens works such as Dumbo, Babar the Elephant and Horton Hears a Who! Elephant also considers the recurrent role of the animal in myths, paintings and sculptures. The book also describes the elephants three remaining species, and the controversial international efforts for elephant conservation. With ivory poaching and human encroachment into the animals natural habitats, Wylie argues that we face a uniquely poignant conservation crisis. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. We all picture Shaka as a lean, mean, assegai-wielding warrior-king, the military genius who founded the Zulu nation. In fact, we don't actually know when he was born, what he looked like, or exactly when he died. Almost every other story you've heard is probably either wrong or contested. This biography draws on the last two decades of historical research to reassess the eyewitness accounts and use newly available oral traditions. The picture that emerges is astonishingly different from the popular stereotype.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. The the indispensable guide to the life and work of Don Maclennan - one of South Africa's most incisive and important poets of the last few decades. No one who encountered Don Maclennan (1929-2009) during the more than three decades of his teaching career at Rhodes University is likely to forget thepiercing appraisal of his blue eyes, the penetration of his questions, or the incisiveness of his opinions. He eventually largely eschewed the pretensions of academic publishing. His favoured medium became the short, pithy talk, rich with original aphorisms on the value of story and poem, and laden with quotations from his favourite writers. And of course poetry. Don published or printed some twenty volumes of poetry, increasingly spare and lapidary, increasingly concerned with his approaching death. Though sometimes disturbing, they above all celebrated the simple fact of being alive, being in love, being sensuous. He knew that there is "no other world" than this one. There is probably no poetry in South Africa's national oeuvre more thoughtfully authentic than his.…
