520 _aSouthern 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. Dr. Parsons has succeeded admirably in conveying the complexities of the Southern African past in a text that is clear and yet comprehensive. This is 'real' history which looks equally at the social, economic and political dimensions of African and European societies and how, from the seventeenth century onwards, they interacted with each other.
