The Complete Story of the Transvaal: From the Great Trek to the Convention of London (1885) is a comprehensive historical account written by John Nixon. The book covers the history of the Transvaal region in South Africa, from the 1830s when the Boers began their Great Trek to escape British rule, to the Convention of London in 1885 which recognized the independence of the Transvaal Republic. The book provides a detailed analysis of the political, social, and economic factors that shaped the region during this period. Nixon examines the conflicts between the Boers and indigenous African tribes, the impact of the discovery of gold on the region, and the tensions between the Boers and the British Empire. The book also delves into the key figures who played a role in the history of the Transvaal, including Paul Kruger, the President of the Transvaal Republic, and Cecil Rhodes, the British businessman and politician who sought to expand British influence in the region. Overall, The Complete Story of the Transvaal provides a comprehensive and detailed account of the history of this important region in South Africa, shedding light on the complex and often contentious relationships between different groups of people during this period of colonial expansion and political upheaval.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
