Excerpt from Diamonds and Gold in South Africa Some of the following pages have already appeared in print. The section on the diamond fields, originally written for the Official Handbook of the Cape of Good Hope, ' was issued in pamphlet form at the time of the Kimberley Exhibition of 1892, on which occasion also the paper on the gold fields was delivered as a lecture. It is now published for the first time, and the whole work has been carefully revised and brought up to date, besides being considerably enlarged by the addition of the latest statistics bearing on the two industries, and by a number of articles on points of special interest, which will be found in the Appendix. I take this opportunity of acknow ledging my indebtedness, not only to the gentlemen whose names are affixed to these articles, but also to the managers and secretaries of Companies who have freely placed much valuable information at my disposal; to many old colonists for useful comments and criticism; and, especially, to Mr. John Noble, of Capetown, for a large amount of generous assistance and encouragement. For the rest, I have drawn up a list of the principal authors consulted, to which must be added a whole library of blue-books, and companies' reports, and files of colonial newspapers, too numerous to specify. Though the materials are at hand for doing justice to the subject, yet, in spite of the number of works that have been written on South Africa, it cannot be said that the diamond and gold fields, which form the backbone of the country, have received that attention at the hands of either scientific or imaginative writers which they deserve.

The prize was great -- not just land, but the riches it held, in the form of diamonds and gold. What became a country called South Africa was, until 1910, a vast and untamed land where great fortunes could be made (and lost); where great battles were fought (and lost); and where great men had their reputations forged, or dashed, or sometimes both. Martin Meredith's follow-up to his magisterial THE STATE OF AFRICA is an equally epic new history of the making of South Africa. Covering the extraordinarily eventful four decades leading up to the establishment of the Union of South Africa in 1910, it covers some of the most iconic tales of imperial history. The Zulus at Rorke's Drift; the Jameson Raid; the diamond and gold rushes at Kimberley and Witwatersrand; the Boer wars; the titanic struggle between the arch-imperialist Cecil Rhodes and his Boer rival, Paul Kruger -- DIAMONDS, GOLD AND WAR brings all of these and more together in a stunningly coherent and compelling narrative. History, somehow, just isn't as colourful any more.

Book Excerpt: ...onderful world of ours. If this internal molten mass came bursting out and cooled very quickly it became granite; less quickly copper, less quickly silver, less quickly gold, and, after gold, diamonds were made.Said the old priest, ``A diamond is a congealed drop of sunlight.'' Now that is literally scientifically true, that a diamond is an actual deposit of carbon from the sun. The old priest told Ali Hafed that if he had one diamond the size of his thumb he could purchase the county, and if he had a mine of diamonds he could place his children upon thrones through the influence of their great wealth.Ali Hafed heard all about diamonds, how much they were worth, and went to his bed that night a poor man. He had not lost anything, but he was poor because he was discontented, and discontented because he feared he was poor. He said, ``I want a mine of diamonds, '' and he lay awake all night.Early in the morning he sought out the priest. I know by experience that a priest is very cross when awake...
