Character analysis of James Jarvis

Private life:
He is generous because he helps the people of Ndotsheni and he helps to develop the place. After reading the Manuscript of his late son he now understands black people. He also realized what was happening in his country (apartheid) and he was then concerned about the racial justice.

Public Life:
He is known as a silent farmer and engineer. He is not concern about the blacks or apartheid unlike his son. Apartheid did not affect him in the least. But after the death of his son he cared and was respectful towards the blacks.

Peoples' perceptions:
He was a silent man. He does not care about other people or racial justice. After Arthur dies he respects Stephen and his culture.
