Very good condition in a good dustwrapper. "It will pain many white South Africans to learn that Piet Retief, whom they have been made to believe was a great national hero, is not entitled to that distinction at all. But there it is: the story of his life is one of failure from the very day he started on his own until the day he died on Hlomo-ambutu." .
