Assignments for South African History from Prof. Landau, an attempt to slow down time and represent pioneer settler colonists in southern Africa in an actual working context. Featuring: The Cook/[b]logger, Daniel Francis (remembered per Francistown), Sam Edwards, Dobbie, Tom Owen, chiefs Mankurwane ("Mongkoran"), Sechele (Molepolole), Sekgoma and Khama (of Shoshong), McLean, and many unnamed hired Africans.
About Me
- Paul Landau
- Assoc. Prof. of History, University of Maryland. Two words are "bleeped." They are expletives for Africans, one beginning with N, the other (more frequent in South Africa) with K. Three words are reconstructed from dashed words: B-----, D------, and H---, and so are in effect "unbleeped." The rest is absolutely verbatim to the existing logbook in the ZNA.
