'The book that follows tells the story of an institution. In 1892, just six years after the discovery of the Witwatersrand, a group of mine managers formed themselves into an association. Already their mines were producing so much wealth that it was transforming the whole of South Africa. The process has continued ever since, and generations of mine managers have done all in their power to sustain the nation's rise to be the showpiece of a continent.' - from the foreword
