The Key To South Africa: Delagoa Bay is a book written by Montague George Jessett and originally published in 1899. The book provides a detailed account of the strategic importance of Delagoa Bay, a natural harbor located on the southeast coast of Africa, during the late 19th century. The author explores the historical, political, and economic significance of Delagoa Bay, which was a major port for the export of gold and other valuable commodities from the South African interior. Jessett also discusses the various colonial powers that sought to control the bay, including Portugal, Britain, and Germany, and the conflicts that arose as a result.Throughout the book, Jessett argues that Delagoa Bay was the key to unlocking the economic potential of South Africa and maintaining control over the region. He provides a detailed analysis of the various factors that made the bay so important, including its location, natural resources, and infrastructure.Overall, The Key To South Africa: Delagoa Bay is a fascinating historical account of a crucial period in South African history, and provides valuable insights into the political and economic forces that shaped the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
