Synopsis "Cattle of the Ages: Ankole Cattle in South Africa (in English)"

This book is a narrative and pictorial celebration of the Ankole, the most magnificent breed of cattle in the world. In this majestic book, Cyril Ramaphosa reveals his passion and love for cattle as he introduces us to the magnificent Ankole cattle, originating in Uganda, and now, through his intervention, flourishing in South Africa. He reflects on the legacy bequeathed him by his father, Samuel Mundzhedzi Ramaphosa, who had to leave behind his cattle herd in Venda to find work in Johannesburg. Life in the city was tough and demanding, weakening Samuels links with his ancestral origins and causing the loss of his herd. The love of cattle runs deep in South Africans and Cyril is fulfilling his fathers legacy, instilling a new pride for South Africans with these remarkable cattle.
