Eleven Years in Central South Africa (Hardcover, 2 Rev Ed)

An important surviving source for the study of the spectacular and short-lived kingdom of Ndebele. In the literature of pre-conquest Rhodesia, Thomas' book stands out by virtue of its ethnographical and political material about the Ndebele under Mzilikazi and Lebengula and its description of the momentous encounter between the Christian mission activities and African societies in the pre-colonial era.
