N2  - This volume takes the story of the Native Land Court forward to 1909 and the great consolidating Native Land Act of that year. The period from 1888-1909 was a very important, and somewhat neglected, one in the history of the Native Land Court and its allied institutions.  This book is not merely a compilation but a definitive study of the Native Land Court in its political and legal context
