Long DescriptionThis account covers the history of the African sub-continent from pre-history to the present day. It concentrates on the history of the African people of the region, showing the variety of their political organizations and the range of their economic activities both before and after European colonization. The history of Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland and Namibia are dealt with, particularly in relation to the emergence of the modern State of South Africa. The work also includes a selection of original documents aimed at developing students' skills in interpreting primary evidence. Exercises at the end of each chapter are also designed to encourage individual study and stimulate discussion. The book covers the Cambridge GCE O level syllabus and is suitable for all equivalent examinations with an option on South African history.

Internet issues beyond our control

Sorry folks for the slow and spotty service to our site yesterday (1/10/2013). There was work being done in the area and it caused general service interuptions.

We experienced poor internet accessability and noticed far fewer visitors than normal to the site. There was a point over night when all internet service went down. We contacted our ISP this morning to find out they were performing maintenance in our area and had to shut down a hub station at one point.

The maintenance in general caused a bottle neck for data in our area and shutting down the hub took us completely off-line for almost an hour.

This is regretable but well beyond our control. We are sorry if this impacted you and access to our data.
