View Full Version : Looking for Jan Smuts Biography

I've not bought a traditional book for years, other than a coffee table book of Herbert Pontins photos with Scott in the Antarctic. That one would not be too good on a small screen, even a VGA one :D

Until now, I've been able to find everything I want in ebook form. I'm struggling a bit at the moment, because I want to find a good biography of Jan Smuts and have not had any success so far. Even in paper, poor Mr. Smuts seems to have been forgotten. Strange since he was involved in many important events of the 20th century.

Anyone have any ideas? I'd obviously prefer an ebook format, but I'd get a paper one if I have to.

Thanks and have a great new year!

This could be formatted into an ebook without too much trouble by copying each chapter into a wordprocessor and make the book and chapter headings in a larger font.

PM me if you would like a hand.

Thanks, as soon as I have a few spare minutes I'll give it a try.
