Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Lord De Villiers and His Times' is a comprehensive and scholarly biography of John de Villiers, 1st Baron de Villiers, who served as the first Chief Justice of the Union of South Africa. Written by the distinguished historian Eric A. Walker, this work offers an in-depth exploration of a legal and p…olitical giant whose life mirrored the tumultuous and transformative era of late 19th and early 20th-century South Africa.The narrative meticulously traces De Villiers' ascent from a talented Cape lawyer to a central figure in the constitutional debates that shaped the nation. As a pivotal actor in the National Convention and a respected jurist, De Villiers played a crucial role in harmonizing Roman-Dutch law with English legal principles, laying the groundwork for the country's modern judicial system. Beyond the courtroom, Walker illustrates De Villiers' influence on the political landscape, highlighting his efforts to navigate the complexities of colonial governance and racial tensions.This biography serves as both a personal portrait and a historical survey of a defining period in African history. It provides essential context for understanding the evolution of South African statehood and the legal frameworks that emerged during De Villiers' tenure. It is an invaluable resource for historians, legal scholars, and readers interested in the intricate history of the Cape Colony and the birth of the Union.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
