Much Talking (Veelgepraat)

Here is a book that makes South African history come alive. This fascinating account is personal, which makes it of greater interest. It includes references to The Anglo-Boer War, The Spanish Influenza Epidemic, Jan Smuts, Anglo Concentration Camps and farm life and old herbal remedies in the days before antibiotics. It describes one family's children's escape from The Scorched Earth Policy of the Anglo-Boer war and how they hid in the mountains until the war was over and mother was reunited with her children. The book contains several interesting photographs and should leave the reader spellbound and unable to put the book down.
