This pioneering and fascinating book is the first to tell the story of the remarkably enduring bonds between Malawi and Scotland from the time of David Livingstone to the flourishing cultural, economic and religious relationships of the present day. Why should there be any significant relationship between one small nation on Europe's north-western seaboard and another in the interior of Africa? How did it reach the stage where in 2012 Fiona Hyslop, Cabinet Secretary for Culture and External Affairs in the Scottish Government, could describe Malawi as Scotland's "sister nation"? This book attempts an answer.
'Don't make a mess of it.' Of such stuff are legends built, heroes made, and plays written. The popularity of Harry 'Breaker' Morant survives still, in this play written by Kenneth Ross. Here Ross, in theatrical terms, has created the last days of 'Breaker' Morant based on what is known of the characters involved, the circumstances leading up to the arrests, and a number of events known to have occurred at the time. Originally performed by the Melbourne Theatre Company at the Athenaeum Theatre on 2 February 1978. The script of the film Breaker Morant, produced by the S.A. Film Corporation was adapted from Kenneth Ross's play.
