Autorenporträt
Natalie Harris Hammond was an American writer and author born on 28 September 1859. She is best known for her historical works, particularly A Woman's Part in a Revolution (1897), in which she recounted her personal experiences during the Johannesburg Revolt. This narrative highlights the political unrest in South Africa during the late 19th century, emphasizing the roles of women amidst social and political upheaval. Hammond's writing also reflects her keen interest in the broader socio-political issues of her time, including her exploration of the tensions between the Boer government and the Uitlanders in The Boers and the Uitlanders (1901). In her works, she skillfully combined her personal observations with the larger historical context, shedding light on the complexities of family, loyalty, and sacrifice in times of revolution. Hammond was married to John Hays Hammond, a prominent mining engineer, which gave her unique insights into the political environment of South Africa. She passed away in 1931 at the age of 72, leaving behind a legacy of historical writings that continue to offer valuable perspectives on women's roles during times of conflict and revolution.
