Quest for the Promised Land
South Africa, 1800s
African Covenant Series - Book 2
Oppressed by British rule, the van der Kemps cross a hostile wilderness to find a home.
About the Book
In a nineteenth century South African colony oppressed by British rule, the descendants of Dutch immigrants, native Africans, and mixed-race people fight to carve out an existence in a nation where Afrikaner identities are intertwined with the Bible and the precious South African land.
To the Afrikaner family of Christiaan van der Kemp, hope rests upon a dramatic – and dangerous – trek across hostile wilderness territory to a settlement they can call their own.
To Jama, the descendant of freed slave Ding, the future lies in the spartan kraals of his family’s Zulu ancestors.
To the mixed-race Griquas, descendants of Matthew Durbin, peace lies in an elusive place of acceptance for this people without a country.
Experience the dreams, loves, victories, and tragedies of three families inescapably linked by the battle for Afrikaner independence and their quest for the promised land.
