Sugar and Settlers: A history of the Natal South Coast 1850 to 1910

Author: Duncan L. Du Bois

Publisher: Uj Press

Released: 23 June 2023

ISBN: 9781920382711

Duncan Du Bois provides a detailed and fascinating history of a hitherto much-neglected part of what was the colony of Natal. Based primarily on original archival research, he traces the southward advance of the white settler frontier and its sugar-based economy from Isipingo to the Mzimkulu river and, without the sugar engine, to the Mtamvuna.
