F A Van Jaarsveld

Floris Albertus (Floors) van Jaarsveld (1922–1995) was one of South Africa's most prolific historians. After a doctorate at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands, he returned to South Africa to teach history at several universities. His views on Afrikaner history changed over the course of his career. Van Van Riebeeck tot Verwoerd: 'n Inleiding tot die Geskiedenis van die Republiek van Suid-Afrika (1969), listed here, was his own attempt to write the history of South Africa.

Van Jaarsveld died in 1995.
