About This Item
London: Oxford University Press, 1918 A charming little history published just after South Africa achieved Union in 1910. Dorothea Fairbridge was a lawyer, scholar and Cape Town parliamentarian. She was related to Kingsley Fairbridge. The writing is dated. For example, Fairbridge uses terms to describe the native people that would today be considered pejorative.The writing is coherent and the facts accurate from a 1918 perspective. Abundant black and white photographs throughout. Foxing on end papers. Solid binding. Previous owner's stamp on flyleaf The Rev A.J.R. Beddy, an Anglican priest of Oudtshoorn, South Africa. A curiosity and useful in the absence of short histories of the region. ----------- Orders over $100.00 are shipped using tracked courier delivery services. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
