About This Item
(Cape Town: Chameleon Press, 1986) 0620098309. 214 x 147 mm; saddle-stitched pictorial wrappers; pp. 24; line drawings. Fine condition. Afrikaans text. The story of the ostrich feather industry and the place played by Oudtshoorn in its growth. "Soos Johannesburg en goud, of Kimberley en diamante, is die dorp Oudtshoorn sinoniem met volstruise. Soos met minerale, is daar goeie jare en insinkings - niks anders nie as met die goudstormlope van die 19de eeu. Waar het die broeivoëls vandaan gekom, en hoekom het spesifiek Oudtshoorn die wêreldsentrum van die volstruisboerderybedryf geword?" .
