Seller's Description:
Near Fine. 8vo. xviii, 222pp, index, bibliography, bw ills. Or card covers with integral flaps. Near new. While historic mythology credits Robert Baden-Powell as the "Hero of Mafeking" this books shows him as "The Monster of Mafeking", responsible for untold tragedy during the siege of that town in 1899-1900. The title, The Boy, refers at once to his suspected lover, Kenneth McLaren, and to Sol Plaatje and the long lineage of South African black men condescendingly called 'boys'.
