 The Kingdom of Swaziland  -  D. Hugh Gillis 
A scholarly and engaging study, this history of Swaziland, by an author who spent many years in the kingdom, presents a vivid account of the interplay of politics and personalities along the passage to post -colonial independence. From the early stages of Swazi occupation of the present-day kingdom to the accession of Sobhuza II as king in 1921, this book traces problems in consolidating leadership under the Diamini chieftaincy and examines the influence of Boer and British settlers, and of mining and commercial interests, on Swazi culture and governance. It recounts the story of a thriving small nation that sought to maintain traditional customs and institutions in the face of a powerful European presence.

Geschiedenis van Swaziland

Bij de Conventie van Pretoria (1881) werd de onafhankelijkheid van Swaziland erkend. Maar de Britten joegen in 1889 koning Dlamini IV van de troon. Na de Tweede Boerenoorlog werd Swaziland een Brits protectoraat en pas op 6 september 1968 Swaziland echt onafhankelijk.
