A real treasure and a must listen for every South African!
A thoroughly engaging and expertly presented story of South Africa. This is everything we weren’t taught in school! Des has a superb gift for communicating the fascinating history of South Africa with wit and humour, remaining balanced and non political. This is a real rarity in today’s world and we should be incredibly grateful to his dedication and generosity to have put this together with so much passion and insight that we may all benefit- this really is a public good and so to is he. The series intelligently blends every aspect of South African history- encompassing the connection between the land itself, economic, military, cultural, technological and societal changes and also the role of chance and personal decision making by some key characters along the way. I’m so doing it is a wonderful mirror of all human history around the world and in all times! And the series becomes an insightful and valuable work in understanding human nature and the pattens it follows. Highly recommend! Thank you Des!

Have thoroughly enjoyed the few episodes I have listened to and look forward to going deeper. I am a historian myself and from South African and so I am finding this series rather compelling. Keep it up!
