Title page stamped Evangeli Xhosa Bible School P.O. Kentani Transkei. It seems that the term Kaffir originally a Muslim word for unbeliever was applied to Xhosa people in a particular area of Southern Africa and was not taken to be pejorative to the extent it became later in the 20th century. For instance in the early 20th century South African Kaffir missionary John B Radasi refers to Kaffir Zulu and Fingoe people and languages and does not mention the word Xhosa at all. Cloth. Poor.
