- Q4721781 abstract "Alfred John Wannenburgh (1936-2010, Cape Town) is a South African author, journalist and political activist of German and Dutch descent. Wannenburgh attended Ronderbosch Boys High School (RBHS) and later studied at the University of Cape Town. In his university days he worked as a land-surveyor's assistant, salesman, clerk and window-dresser. Wannenburgh is most significantly associated with the Sophiatown Renaissance. He was an Umkhonto we Sizwe noted for his part in the ANC Underground Movement where he became close friends with Dennis Goldberg. Wannenburgh remained in South Africa in the early 1960s rather than going into exile. A close friend of Richard Rive at this time, he contributed stories to anthologies edited by Rive for Heinemann's African Writers Series: the short story anthology Quartet (1963) and the prose anthology Modern African Prose (1964). He later wrote about the Southern African landscape and Kalahari Bushmen, collaborating with photographers on books and instances of photojournalism for which he provided the text. He wrote Forgotten Frontiersmen which centred around the history of the Griqua and Khoikhoi people. In 1987 he wrote The World of Shooting, a detailed account of the history and worldwide efforts made towards the goal of nature conservation and the contributions given towards the sustainability of land through funds raised by controlled shooting ranges. A book that records in great detail, the venues of the most prestigious shoots around the world as well as the key figures and events that ensure their effective impact. Diamond people, a book on the history and trade of diamonds which covers the start and legacy of the De Beers mining company, as well as other subjects such as the famous jewels of the world and the stories behind their discovery. Wannenburgh wrote Diamond People in consultation with the Oppenheimer family and various other contributing parties.".
