Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Good Hope explores what took place between 1652, when Van Riebeeck landed at the Cape, and Mandela's visit to Amsterdam in 1990. The arrival of the Dutch in South Africa cast its originalinhabitants adrift. The VOC introduced slavery to the Cape and brought Islam when it banished disaffected Muslims there from Asian colonies such Java and Makassar. Borders shifted and whole populations moved away, disintegrated or assimilated into other groups.
