A SELECT BIBLIOGRAPHY
|
||
|
|
||
|
The
literature dealing with Southern Africa, both general and technical, is
now very large and it will be obvious, therefore, that selection must
involve a certain element of arbitrary choice on the part of the
compiler: the principles adopted here have been to give some guidance
to the reader on 'background' material, political, historical and
economic: to refer to the more significant bibliographical and
autobiographical works, with special reference to mining, and to stress
the literature dealing with mining and mining history. Much attention
has been given in recent years to the period of discovery of both
diamonds and gold, and some aspects of this subject are still
controversial. So far as the autobiographical and biographical
literature is concerned, the inclusion of a book does not mean that the
authenticity of its contents is necessarily to be accepted without
question. It may be added that many of the works included contain
important bibliographical material.
