Books to keep you in the heritage mood
Farmer's Weekly
|26 September - 3 October 2025
Still swept up by the joy of Heritage Month in which we also celebrate South Africa's rich diversity, Patricia McCracken has selected a similarly diverse range of titles with distinctly local themes.
Die By The Sword by Tony Park (Macmillan, R360) “Imagine Prince Harry had been killed when he was serving in Afghanistan,” muses African adventure writer Tony Park. “That would have been a paparazzi frenzy.”
Park served for six months in Afghanistan in 2002 with the Australian Army Reserve. His ‘what if’ spooled through his vivid imagination, via a book he read on the ill-fated participation of the French Prince Imperial, Louis Napoleon, son of Napoleon III, in the 1879 Anglo-Zulu War.
