  The samurai way of life is guided by three core values - loyalty, honor, and respect. These principles are more than just words; they are the basis of a strict code of conduct that governs every aspect of a samurai's life. Loyalty is the foundation of the samurai's relationship with their lord. It is not just blind obedience but an unwavering sense of duty and honor that compels them to protect their lord at all costs. This bond is unbreakable and lasts beyond death. Honor is earned through acts of bravery and selflessness on the battlefield and maintained through strict adherence to the Bushido code. A samurai's reputation is built on their honor, and they will go to great lengths to protect it, even if it means sacrificing their own life.Respect is the currency of the samurai world, earned through martial prowess and deeds of valor. A respected samurai is a force to be reckoned with, their reputation preceding them wherever they go. Respect must be earned through actions demonstrating the samurai's worthiness of admiration and awe.For a Samurai, these values are not just aspirations but a way of life that defines who they are and what they stand for. With these guiding principles, a samurai is a skilled swordsman with a moral compass. Through the practice of these principles, the samurai become legends, their names remembered and revered for generations to come.

  Foreign Native - An African Journey

  RW Johnson

  In Foreign Native, RW Johnson looks back with affection and humour on his life in Africa. From schooldays in Durban – fresh off the plane from Merseyside – to later years as an academic, director of the Helen Suzman Foundation and formidable political commentator, he has produced an entertaining and occasionally eye-popping memoir brimming with history, anecdote and insight.
  Johnson charts his evolution from enthusiastic, left-leaning Africanist to political realist, relating episodes that influenced his intellectual worldview, including time spent among the exiled liberation movements in London during the 1960s, a sojourn in newly independent Guinea and more recent forays into Zimbabwe. There are wonderful stories, some hilarious, others filled with pathos, about the multitude of characters – Harold Strachan, Tom Sharpe, Ronnie Kasrils, Helen Suzman, Frederik van Zyl Slabbert, among many others – that he met along the way.
  Perceptive, critical and full of verve, Foreign Native is leavened with a deep humanity that makes it a pleasure to read.
