Originally published in 1947 and reprinted with a new preface in
1961, this book is based on field studies and gives an account of
the social organization of the Swazi, wiith special reference to
the aristocratic structure of their society and the way in which
birth and rank determine social relationships and activities. The
book provides a historical picture of the Swazi and the part played
by them during the period of European expansion in British and Boer
conflicts in South Africa. The economic structure of a society
based on agriculture and the influence exerted over every aspect of
social activity by the conservative and aristocratic political
hierarchy is analyzed and post-War changes and their effect upon
the Swazi also reviewed.
