Twenty Years In Khama�������s Country: And Pioneering Among The Batauana Of Lake Ngami is a memoir written by James Davidson Hepburn, originally published in 1896. The book chronicles Hepburn's experiences as a missionary in southern Africa, specifically in the region of Lake Ngami, between 1876 and 1896. Hepburn describes his interactions with the Batauana people, their culture, and their way of life. He also details his efforts to establish a Christian mission in the area, and his relationships with local chiefs, including Khama III. The book provides a firsthand account of the challenges and triumphs of missionary work in a remote and often hostile environment. It also serves as a historical document, shedding light on the social and political landscape of southern Africa during the late 19th century. Overall, Twenty Years In Khama�������s Country is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in African history, missionary work, or cultural anthropology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
