%X Based on 125 interviews, this study exposes the heart of the "white tribe of Africa", its demons, terrors and saviors. The authors present the voices of Afrikaners, from the head of the Broederbond to novelists and church leaders. Defeated by the British in 1902 in the Anglo-Boer War, poverty-stricken in the twenties and thirties, the Afrikaner Nationalists instituted apartheid at midcentury, forcing millions of black people from "white" areas and torturing and killing hundreds in the name of anticommunism. They used their religion to justify apartheid as God's will. This book is an attempt to help readers understand how Afrikaners could invent the biggest social engineering effort of this last half century. (DÜI-Hff)
