My thanks to my family for their forbearance during the course of my research. I am also grateful for the assistance provided by my supervisors, Dr Ian Phillips and Prof. Sandy Johnston, who, despite the demands of their other academic and political duties, provided helpful suggestions. The large number of people working in libraries at the Universities of Natal, the Witwatersrand and Transkei who assisted me in my search for documentary material also have my gratitude. I particularly appreciate the help given to me by Mpho and Thandi of the South African Historical Archives. My thanks to the University of Transkei for making it possible for me to complete this study. I also wish to express my appreciation of the Lord God for allowing me to finish this thesis.
