Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. Becker, Syndi (jacket design); Estrada, Sigrid ((author photograph) (illustratore). 1st Edition. Near fine condition black boards, green cloth spine, and gold front cover and spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by Stefan Kanter; Author Dedication; Acknowledgments; Introduction: Mere Carbon, After All; Notes and Index. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates and illustrated front and rear endpapers. "From the ashes of South Africa, Stefan Kanfer sifts the diamonds of De Beers. It's an ironic tale, in black and white, fo ultimate clout in a land of ultimate despair. A powerhouse of a book. -- Studs Terkel. "De Beers Consolidated Mines is fighting for its life. The most powerful and secxretive cartel in the world faces diamond smuggling in Angola, disruption in Russia, and a worldwide recession. But this is not the ferst emergency De Beers has confronted in its long history of sturggle and survival. In The Last Empire, Stefan Kanfer chronicles the nineteenth-century diamond rush that transformed Johannes De Beer's humble South African farmstead into an exotic Klondike. With a scholar's precision and a novelist's eye, he recounts the rise of wild frontier towns like New Rush (now Kimberley) and Johannesburg, and thir roisterous mix of plutocrats and prostitutes, gamblers and politicians. Kanfer shows the roots of the racial crisis in the developing land: the misery of black miners and the fortunes of white prospectors; the defeat of the African emperor Lobengula, and the rise of his legendary adversary, Cecil Rhodes, who would rule both the Cape Colony and De Beers. In the twentieth century, the cartel comes under the control of the Oppenheimers, a German-Jewish dynasty that builds De Beers and its gold-mining twin, the Anglo American Corporation, into an empire of unmatched global reach, and creates a shadow government more flexible and powerful that South Africa's official leadership. Kanfer documents the Oppenheimers' dealings on and under the table: their condemnation of apartheid even as they exploit cheap black labor, their quiet takeover of Salomon Brothers, their monopoly on diamonds and their grip on gold maintained at all costs and by any means. And he uncovers the passionate inside story of the billionair family whose empire, he argues, will survive will into the twent y-first century." -- from the inner front jacket flap.
