"A Secret of the Lebombo" explores several profound themes, including morality, justice, and survival. Central to the story is the protagonist, Wyvern, who is faced with a moral quandary after discovering two individuals stealing his sheep. The novel grapples with the tension between compassion and punishment, as Wyvern must decide whether to show mercy or enforce justice. This internal struggle reflects the broader theme of how individuals navigate their ethical responsibilities in the face of crime and betrayal. Additionally, the novel delves into the theme of survival in the unforgiving environment of South Africa's rural landscape, where physical resilience is tested alongside the need for ethical decision-making. The setting underscores the precariousness of human existence in a world where resources are scarce, and tensions between people can escalate quickly. The book also explores personal responsibility as Wyvern reflects on his actions and their consequences, as well as the broader implications of his decisions for his future. Ultimately, the novel examines how choices driven by fear, pride, and necessity shape one's identity and relationships in a world marked by conflict and uncertainty.

Autorenporträt
Bertram Mitford was an English colonial writer, novelist, essayist, and cultural critic, born on June 13, 1855, in Bath, United Kingdom. He was the third son of Edward Ledwich Osbaldeston Mitford, a member of the prominent Mitford family. Mitford is best known for his novels set in South Africa, a country he came to know intimately and where much of his writing is based. His works often reflect the political, social, and environmental challenges of life in colonial Africa. Over the course of his career, Mitford wrote forty-four books, with many focusing on adventure, colonial conflicts, and the complexities of the British Empire in Africa. His vivid descriptions of the South African landscape and his nuanced portrayal of colonial life garnered him a lasting place in the genre of adventure fiction. Mitford's deep understanding of the region and its cultures also made him a respected cultural critic and essayist. Mitford passed away on October 4, 1914, in Cowfold, United Kingdom. His books continue to be valued for their insight into the colonial period and their exciting plots.
