This 1963 edition of “The History of Apartheid” by L.E. Neame offers a contemporaneous account of the institutionalized system of racial segregation and discrimination enforced by the white minority government in South Africa. Published in the midst of the apartheid era, this book provides valuable historical insights into the origins, implementation, and early impacts of this oppressive regime. Neame, as a South African writer and journalist, witnessed firsthand the escalating tensions and human rights violations that characterized this period. While the book’s language and perspectives may reflect the biases of its time, it remains an important primary source for understanding one of the most significant civil rights struggles of the 20th century. Collectors of South African history, political literature, and works documenting human rights movements will appreciate this vintage copy’s well-preserved condition, allowing them to engage with this pivotal moment in the nation’s turbulent past.
