Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book takes readers on an enthralling journey through the history of Rhodesia, a vast territory in Central Africa that would become a key part of the British Empire. The author delves into the mysteries surrounding the region's ancient civilization, exploring the enigmatic ruins o…f Zimbabwe and the long -held theory that Rhodesia was the legendary land of Ophir. The book traces the rise and fall of the Matabele kingdom under the rule of Lobengula, a complex and often brutal leader. The author provides a vivid account of the Matabele's customs, their clashes with early European explorers, and the events that led to the granting of a concession to the British South Africa Company, setting the stage for the colonization of Rhodesia. The book then chronicles the tumultuous early years of the colony, including the Matabele Wars, the controversial Jameson Raid, and the subsequent rebellion of the Matabele people. This work offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal period in Southern African history, shedding light on the complex interactions between European ambition, native cultures, and the enduring quest for wealth and power.
