Book excerpt: "A Century of Wrong" is a historical novel. At the advent of the South African War (Second Anglo-Boer War), Francis William Reitz, in his capacity of State Secretary of the South African Republic, published an overview of Anglo-Boer relations in the nineteenth century in Dutch, under the title "A Century of Wrong". The book was an important propaganda document in the war. Reitz defends the Dutch from what he terms as wrong accusations of Dutch Boer brutality against the natives of the Transvaal Region. He in turn counters with a history of British aggression against the Dutch migrants in the South African Republic.
