This work is a biography of the Afrikaner people by historian and journalist Herman Giliomee, one of the earliest and staunchest Afrikaner opponents of apartheid. Weaving together life stories and historical interpretation, he creates a narrative history of the Afrikaners from their beginnings with the colonisation of the Cape of Good Hope by the Dutch East India Company to the dismantling of apartheid and beyond.
This, the first volume of a projected trilogy, is a collection, with explanatory and critical comments, of 140 key documents - letters, speeches, manifestos, reports, petitions, diary entries and newspaper editorials - of Afrikaners over the period 1780 - 1850.
The aim of this book is to demystify Afrikaner identity. It deals with the issue on a social psychological level within the framework of social identity theory and shows how specific social identity is constructed by some people for themselves and for others.

When South Africa's present transitional government comes to an end, apartheid will be dead. But just as the demise of slavery did not solve America's race problems, so the abolition of apartheid will only begin South Africa's healing process. Heart of Whiteness examines the cataclysmic changes taking place among Afrikaners--the "white tribe" of South Africa.
