Excerpt from Forged in Strong Fires
Grasping her struggling charge more securely, she stalked round the semicircle and paused before her mistress, to whom she appealed in expressive pantomime. Not on her own responsibility would Lalele permit the spoiled darling to indulge her whim, and thereby incur the danger of being knocked down by one or another of the whirling couples.
Mrs. Granville, a placid, dark-eyed little lady, seated comfortably in a hammock Chair with her feet on a wooden stool, nodded her permission, with a warning gesture to Lalele, which that dusky dam sel rightly interpreted as a command to see that the Child came to no harm.
It was much less trouble to let Babs have her own way than to stand the racket that would inevitably ensue if she were thwarted. In fact, no one, save Lalele herself, was capable of such temerity, and she only on rare occasions when the mistress was not at hand to interfere.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is the first volume in a trilogy set against the backdrop of the impending Anglo-Boer war and the power struggles between Afrikaners and the British in South Africa at the turn of the 20th century. It tells the story of two families, the Granvilles and the Andres, whose lives and conflicts are set against a rich tapestry of historical events. The author draws on personal experience to create an evocative portrayal of rural life in the Transvaal Republic and explores such themes as the clash between cultures, the role of women in society, and the deep-rooted Afrikaner mistrust of British rule. These are seen through the prism of the families, particularly through the character of Joyce, a young woman with an innate connection to the land and its struggles. The novel vividly depicts a world poised on the cusp of war and change, offering a rich insight into a complex and fascinating period of history.
