Compares race relations in the American South during the early 1900s to those in South Africa Reprinted here for the first time since its publication in 1915, Black and White in the Southern States by Maurice S. Evans, a British immigrant to South Africa in 1875 and a founder of the Union of South Africa in 1910, is one of the earliest studies in comparative race relations and the first to connect the experience of the American South experience to that of South Africa. Evans, a perceptive observer and a surprising critic of American race relations, was an objective chronicler of the South during the segregation era. This work is a synthesis of the observations Evans made as he traveled the southern United States in 1914 to examine race relations. During this trip he investigated southern metropolitan life, industrial relations and the workplace, and social and cultural connections. Evans's study presents a revealing assessment of racial attitudes and ideologies in the Jim Crow era. In his introduction to this edition George M. Fredrickson, the preeminent scholar who defined the field of comparative racial ideologies, analyzes the underlying racist character of Evans's work. Fredrickson places Evans's work in its full intellectual social context. Evans's overarching question was whether or not black and white races could share the same geographical region and, if they could, under what conditions. He learned quickly that, for the South, this was a moot question. Historical circumstances prevented a geographical separation, even though some black and white southerners vainly advocated that course. The history of the American South served as an object lesson for South Africa--a revelation of the consequences of incomplete racial segregation. Evans explains how white southerners, unable to separate the races physically, created legal and cultural bars to segregate the races. Concluding that the South was a poor model for "solving" race questions, Evans suggested that South Africa might solve its problem by maintaining strict territorial division, thereby avoiding the discriminatory, punitive Jim Crow culture of the American South. .…

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on identifying and describing native Natal plants for both colonists and those with existing knowledge of some of the subject. It does not delve into technical details that would be inaccessible to the typical colonist, but it provides enough depth and breadth to be valuable to botanists as well. Though the book discusses only a limited number of plants, these have been selected to represent the variety of species found in the region. The book is thorough for its time and place and offers a wealth of new information about these plants. The author shares not only technical descriptions, but also cultural knowledge from the indigenous people, making this volume a rich resource for both scientific and cultural perspectives on the flora of the area. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
