ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1966). (1835) 1966 facsimile edition. Ppvi,vi,376. B/w illustrations. Gilt motif to green boards. No. 171/750. End-papers and paste-downs stained, pages slightly cockled but clean. Good copy in stained and chipped dust-wrapper. Andrew Steedman's book was originally published in two volumes, in 1835. This is a facsimile reprint of the second volume which is Volume XVIII in Struik's Africana Collectanea series of facsimile reprints. Steedman's Volume II appears in the Struik series as Volume XVII. So, even though this present edition is Volume II of Steedman's book, this edition has been issued independently in a limited edition of 750 copies. "The Excursions to which the following pages refer were undertaken at different intervals by the author, principally for amusement and information during a residence of ten years at the Cape. In the course of his 'Wanderings' he traversed a considerable portion of the interior of Southern Africa, and succeeded in obtaining an extensive collection of its productions in Natural History, among which were several new and undescribed animals; the incidents and adventures that occurred were preserved in a journal not originally intended for any purpose beyond that of private reference and the amusement of a few friends, to whom a relation of events connected with these journeys might be matter of interest. On the author's return to England however with the specimens of Natural History which he had collected, numerous and repeated inquiries were made relative to the inhabitants of the country whence these specimens were brought: this cirumstance, together with the interest recently excited towards this quarter of the world, suggested the idea of preparing his journal for publication." From Speedman's preface. This second volume contains Parts the Third and Fourth of the whole work but can be read intelligibly, independently of the first volume. This second volume contains four appendices amounting to 213 pages: Some particulars of the Central Africa expedition; Journal of a Traveller, the author accompanies Dr. Smith as far as Philippolis; Wreck of the Grosvenor East Indiaman, descendents of Europeans wrecked on the South African coast; The Amaponda, their customs and current condition; Some particulars connected with the recent irruption of the Caffers along the Eastern Frontier of the Colony. .…
