Hushed Up: A Case For Inquiry Into Some Suppressed Facts Concerning The Conduct Of The War In South Africa (1902) is a book written by Charles Williams. The book is an investigation into the conduct of the war in South Africa, which took place between 1899 and 1902. Williams argues that there were many suppressed facts surrounding the war, and that a full inquiry is necessary to uncover the truth. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the war. Williams covers topics such as the treatment of prisoners of war, the use of concentration camps, and the conduct of the British army. He also examines the role of the media in shaping public opinion about the war, and the ways in which the government suppressed information that was unfavorable to their cause. Throughout the book, Williams presents evidence to support his claims, including eyewitness accounts and government documents. He argues that the truth about the war has been deliberately suppressed, and that a full inquiry is necessary to uncover the full extent of the atrocities that were committed. Hushed Up: A Case For Inquiry Into Some Suppressed Facts Concerning The Conduct Of The War In South Africa (1902) is a thought-provoking and well-researched book that sheds light on an often-overlooked chapter in history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the British Empire, as well as those interested in the ethics of war and the role of the media in shaping public opinion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

"There is nothing else that is like them or that could take their place." - T. S. Eliot"I have just read your "Place of the Lion" and it is to me one of the major literary events of my life ... There are layers and layers-first the pleasure that any good fantasy gives me: then, what is rarely (tho' not so very rarely) combined with this, the pleasure of a real philosophical and theological stimulus: thirdly, characters: fourthly, what I neither expected nor desired, substantial edification." - C. S. Lewis "I want to make clear that these novels of Williams ... are, first of all, very good reading.To him [Williams] the supernatural was perfectly natural, and the natural was also supernatural. And this peculiarity gave him that profound insight into Good and Evil, into the heights of Heaven and the depths of Hell, which provides both the immediate thrill, and the permanent message of novels. Williams is telling us about a world of experience known to him ... he communicates this experience that he has had.The Novels of Charles Williams is a collection of seven gripping novels. These "supernatural thrillers" are all set in the modern world but present human life as being controlled by unseen powers that operate at another level. In this respect, they are very similar to the Harry Potter series. The reader is shown that the supernatural is, in fact, perfectly natural, and exerts an influence on every aspect of our daily existence. On one level, these novels are gripping stories, but at another, they are a unique blend of fantasy, theology, morality and the supernatural which has not been surpassed, and which leave a deep impression on the reader.Charles Williams was physically frail and for financial reasons never attended university; however, he had a vivid imagination and an inquiring mind. He was always interested in books, and after school he started life packing books but rose to be a proof-reader and then an editor at Oxford University Press; he was appointed a lecturer at Oxford University, and was even awarded an honorary M.A. by the university. As an author he was very versatile, writing novels, plays, poetry, popular theology, and academic works on literature. He was one of the "Inklings", a group that included C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien. One can see his influence on Lewis and Tolkien. Williams is most remembered for his novels.This edition contains the five novels War in Heaven, Many Dimensions, The Place of the Lion, Shadows of Ecstasy, and Descent into Hell, and also the short story, Et in Sempiternum Pereant, which features the protagonist of Many Dimensions.
