Chapters included are: The Anglo-Boer War - Fransjohan Pretorius The establishment of apartheid, 1948-1966 - David Scher Apartheid: A different view- Hermann Giliomee The democratic puberty, 2004-2011 - Jan-Jan Joubert Two chapters are about the struggle against the Afrikaner and focus on the black resistance movement. The author said in a recent interview: "We did not try and justify apartheid, but one has to know what it was all about". Prof Hermann Giliomee also poses the question in his chapter: "Was apartheid all bad?" The author emphasises that the book is an effort to understand people's behaviour in the history of this country.
