About This Item
Cape Town, South Africa: Juta & Co., Limited, 1957. HC. good+ w/lightly chipped dustjacket (hardcover). B&W illustrations. First published in 1948. This book chronicles the arrival of the Settlers of 1820 on the shores of Southern Africa; their location on the Eastern Frontier of the old Cape Colony as a buffer against the increasing migration of the Bantu tribes westwards into the Colony; their early pioneering efforts to establish themselves in the face of seemingly insurmountable hardships and obstacles; the narrowly averted collapse of the infant Settlement through drought, famine, flood, hostile invasion and war; and the eventual advance of its sturdy founders to peace, security and prosperity. 284pp.
