Inhoud en structuur
Bereik en inhoud
Incomplete. Includes "The Essential Interpreter", and a few leaves written in Tswana.
Plaatje, as an interpreter, dwells on the functions and importance of the interpreter in courts of law, and the miscarriage of justice in British courts of law in Southern Africa, because of unreliable interpreters. A case in point is that of Sekgoma, whose right to the chieftainship is disputed.
