Haggard had worked for six years in South Africa. He wrote the book at Norwood in 1881 while also studying for the Bar. He later said it "represented a great amount of labour. I was determined that it should be accurate, and to ensure this I purchased all the Blue-books dealing with the period of which I was treating." He sent it off to various publishers and only received one offer - from Trubner and Company, who offered to produce 750 copies if Haggard gave them fifty pounds. The author did so.
