DU TOIT, S.J : Alweer Op Reis. Lid Van Di Transvaalse Deputasi in 1883-1884

D.F. Du Toit & Co, Paarl, 1886

A very good copy in the original printed wrappers as issued, lacking rear panel, the front panel edgeworn with very shallow chipping, the text block clean and tight. Scarce. Stephanus Jacobus du Toit (9 October 1847 – 29 May 1911) was a controversial South African nationalist, theologian, journalist and failed politician. In his younger years did much to promote the Afrikaans language as a symbol of Afrikaner nationalism. Apart from the years 1882-8 when he was Superintendent of Education in the South African Republic, he lived in or near the town of Paarl in the Cape Colony. Disillusionment with the Kruger regime led him, in later years, to moderate his views. He was instrumental in initiating the translation of the Bible into Afrikaans and was a proponent of the Afrikaans language.
