About the Book

First Published in 1968. This is a two volumes-in-one collection of documents and official materials that illustrate the process of the South African consolidation. The selection is based on the author's interest in bringing to light documents that have a thread of connection and demonstrate an episode of the British Empire that has not been fully presented in England. The materials date from 1858 to 1905.

Table of Contents:
Introduction.; Chapter 1 Extracts from Correspondence between Sir George Grey and the Colonial Office Respecting the Confederation of South Africa.; Chapter 2 Resolution of the Cape House of Assembly Concerning Responsible Government and a Federative Union, 9 June, 1871.; Chapter 3 The Earl of Kimberley, Secretary of State for the Colonies, to Sir H. Barkly in Reply to a Petition for Separation1The question of Federative Union in the Colony was completely overshadowed by the agitation in the Eastern Province for Separation. Forwarded from Cape Colony, 14 February, 1873.; Chapter 4 Right Hon. the Earl of Carnarvon, Secretary of State for the Colonies, to Sir Henry Barkly, Governor of Cape Colony and High Commissioner Concerning a Proposal for a Conference of Delegates from the Colonies and States of South Africa, 4 May, 1875.; Chapter 5 Minute of the Government of Cape Colony and Resolution of Legislative Council on the Conference Proposed by the Earl of Carnarvon, 7 June, 1875.; Chapter 6 Replies of the Governments of Certain of the South African Colonies and States to the Invitation of the Earl of Carnarvon to a Conference.; Chapter 7 Mr. James Anthony Froude to the Earl of Carnarvon Furnishing a Report of the Late Events at the Cape of Good Hope,1It is impossible to convey an adequate impression of this extraordinary document by merely a few brief extracts, and space does not admit of more. Those who can get access to the Blue Book, which has long been out of print, will find the document an admirable revelation of the attitude of a Victorian intellectual towards the Colonies and “Colonials.” This should be contrasted with the wisdom and understanding of the trained official, Sir Henry Barkly. London, 10 January, 1876.; Chapter 8 The Earl of Carnarvon to Governor Sir Henry Barkly Approving of the Holding of a Special Session of Parliament to Consider the Proposal of a Conference on Confederation, 22 October, 1875.; Chapter 9 Proceedings of the Cape House of Assemb
