Cecil Rhodes: A Study Of A Career is a biography of the English businessman and politician Cecil Rhodes, written by Howard Hensman. The book delves into Rhodes' life, from his early years in England to his travels to South Africa, where he made his fortune through diamond mining and became a prominent figure in politics. The author explores Rhodes' controversial views on imperialism and his role in the colonization of Africa, as well as his involvement in the creation of the De Beers diamond company and the establishment of Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe). The book also examines Rhodes' personal life, including his relationships with women and his philanthropic endeavors, such as the Rhodes Scholarship. Overall, Cecil Rhodes: A Study Of A Career provides a comprehensive look at the life and legacy of one of the most influential figures in British history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
