FORTUNES - The Rise and Rise of Afrikaner Tycoons
Imprint: Johannesburg, Jonathan Ball Publishers, 2021
Edition: Reprint
Binding: Softback
Trade Paperback Large. A new un-read book. Pages viii + 447 including List of Sources and the Index. A comprehensive work based on personal interviews and insider knowledge - bound to become a classic. The past three decades have seen a remarkable rise of Afrikaners in business. With Koos Bekker at its helm, media group Naspers began dominating the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and was turned into a global consumer internet group. Johann Rupert strongly extended Richemont's share internationally in the upper-end market of luxury goods, while Christo Wiese and Whitey Basson at Pepkor and Shoprite became Africa's largest clothing and food retailers. Fortunes describes how these and other business leaders, such as Jannie Mouton, Michiel le Roux, Douw Steyn, Roelof Botha, Hendrik du Toit and a number of commercial farmers, built their empires. It looks at their life and business philosophies and what makes them such successful entrepreneurs. Recent years have also seen the sensational collapse of Steinhoff International, the furniture retailer led by Markus Jooste that destroyed some of these fortunes. While Jooste is the topic of one of the chapters, another looks at the philanthropic projects most of these tycoons are involved in. ALL ORDERS DESPATCHED WITH A TRACKING NUMBER. (JBP-EYI-EEY-8SBy).

Very light sunning to spine. Dustjacket now in Brodart overwrap. Offset to end papers. Pages xxix + 489 text, illustrations, bibliography and including index. A New History. Since the 1960s the history of Natal & Zululand has been dramatically revised and this book reflects that explosion of research activity. The contributors demolish several popular myths in trying to unravel the truth about such key issues as the origin of the Nguni-speaking peoples, the growth of the Zulu kingdom, and the interaction of African and settler societies. They have used new techniques of historical detection, questioned deeply held orthodoxies, and taken into consideration hitherto neglected or underestimated factors such as the impact of environmental disaster, disease and economic trends.
