Book excerpt: In this book, the history of the Bafokeng in South Africa is examined through the lens of Christian missionaries of the Hermannsburg Mission Society. The book looks into the culture and religion of the Bafokeng, using the numerous reports submitted by Christoph and Ernst Penzhorn to their missionary superiors in Germany. These pioneering missionaries not Ã?Â?only had the Christianization of Africans in mind and strove to understand their traditional belief system, but they also facilitated the school education of the Bafokeng in a manner that was inextricably linked to everything else.
