Description
Looted Gold: Debunking the Myth of the Missing Kruger Millions Author: Blake Wilkins, Mike Swight ISBN: 9780620959575
Looted Gold explodes the myth of the missing Kruger Millions with startling evidence that exposes for the first time the committed plundering of the Zuid Afrikaansche Republiek (ZAR) by the political elite over a period of years. The disappearance of the paltry amount of gold that left Pretoria in mid-1900 as President Paul Kruger retreated down the railway line towards Portuguese East Africa is placed in a context not considered in over 100 years. That gold has wrongly become known as the missing Kruger Millions. No one will ever be able to establish exactly how much gold and other treasure was siphoned out of the ZAR illegally during the turbulent period leading up to the declaration of war in 1899. Without doubt, the missing treasure amounts to billions of US dollars at today's values. For the first time, Looted Gold lays bare the role played by the Eloff family, key figures in Kruger's extended family. New Zealand combatant Thomas Brown exposed the Eloff complicity in the seizure of illicit gold. His eye witness accounts are included in his unpublished memoirs and in Looted Gold.
