The Transvaal From Within: A Private Record Of Public Affairs is a book written by James P. Fitzpatrick. The book is a personal account of the author's experiences and observations during his time in the Transvaal, a region in South Africa, during the late 19th century. Fitzpatrick, who was an Irish journalist, was a witness to the events that led up to the Boer War, a conflict between the British Empire and the Boer states. The book provides an insider's perspective on the political and social climate of the Transvaal at the time. Fitzpatrick discusses the complex relationships between the Boers, the British, and the native African populations. He also provides insight into the economic conditions and the mining industry that played a significant role in the region's history.The author's personal experiences and interactions with key figures in the Transvaal, including Paul Kruger, the president of the South African Republic, and Cecil Rhodes, a British imperialist, add depth and richness to the narrative. Overall, The Transvaal From Within is a valuable historical document that sheds light on a pivotal period in South African history. Fitzpatrick's personal account offers a unique perspective on the events leading up to the Boer War and provides insight into the complex relationships between the different groups involved.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
