This book vividly captures the life story of one of South Africa’s great historic schools, spanning its history from 1855 to 2005. When the eminent South African academic and politician, JH Hofmeyr was invited to address the boys of St Andrew’s College in 1929, he said ”I hope that you will always be true to the boy in you”. The wisdom of his statement is profound for, throughout a man’s life, he carries with him the boy he once was, and the formative years at school influence to a great extent the sort of man he will become.
