Description
Previous owner's name to front end paper. No other marks or inscriptions. No creasing to covers or to spine. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards, trace of foxing to top of page edges and no bumping to corners. 190pp. Nontetha had a series of visions in 1918 in South Africa's eastern Cape when the influenza epidemic was sweeping the world. Her preaching that this was a punishment of God and that she must lead her people to reform their ways caused the government to commit her to a mental asylum. Sixty years later the author and historian learnt of her fate and arranged for her body to be transferred from a pauper's grave to her home village.
