Mpush Ntabeni - Cattle And History by Wanted: Dead and Alive published on 2021-04-07T11:56:47Z Mputhumi Ntabeni, author of The Broken River Tent, shares stories about cattle from South African history, including that of Nxele (better know as Makhanda) whose calls for large-scale slaughter of cattle preceded the cattle-killing prophecies made by Nongqawuse by several decades. The stories are also told in Wanted Dead & Alive, in what Ntabeni describes as "a lovely, intelligent read - with well researched historical background".
