N2  - Southern African history is now rapidly emerging from long years of partial and blind treatment. The pace of new research and reinterpretation on aspects as diverse as the Pedi, the frontier, migrant labour, social control in urban areas, the origins of the Second Anglo-Boer War, and much else, means that those who attempt to write a school history text must really be on top of their subject.
