The City of Gold, born in eighteen eighty-six when the world's richest gold reef was found on the highveld and a mining camp exploded into the largest metropolis in sub-Saharan Africa. Its story is the story of modern South Africa: the fortune dug from below, the labour and the townships that grew around it, and the long road to freedom. Read it from Constitution Hill, where an old fort and prison became the home of the Constitutional Court, to Soweto, where the streets carry the memory of nineteen seventy-six and the walk to a free country. At your own pace, on your own schedule.
