Illustrated by Jill Adams. 8vo; original brown cloth; pictorial dustwrapper; pp. 144; black-and-white line drawings. Edges of boards somewhat fishmothed; dustwrapper a little edgeworn; light foxing to endpapers and edges. Good condition. "This is a collection of fascinating animal stories that will delight all lovers of the wild. Written from the point of view of the individual animals themselves, the stories allow us to share the unique experiences of various different species, including some of the less-loved and less well known ones, such as the hyena and honey badger. Each tale reflects the author's own deep love and intimate knowledge of the bush and its inhabitants, and he gives an entirely authentic account of the appearance, surroundings and behaviour of the animals and the dangers they encounter. . Supplementary information concerning the habits, appearance and distribution of the animals is given at the end of each story.".

8vo; original red boards; pictorial dustwrapper; endpaper map; pp. 288, incl. index; maps; black-and-white photographic plates. Boards rather rubbed; dustwrapper rubbed and edge-worn; a little scattered foxing. Good. "Overdue for a home posting, a British imperial battalion - the 1/24th - is taken to Natal to spearhead an invasion of Zululand. Less than two weeks later - on 22 January 1879 - more than 400 of its officers and men lie dead on the battlefield at Isandlwana. The gripping account of this bloody battle constitutes the climax of a story which begins four years earlier, with the arrival of the 1/24th at the Cape of Good Hope on New Year's Day 1875. Their tour of duty is described in detail, and includes accounts of the 'Black Flag' rebellion in Kimberley, a Griqua uprising, and Colonel Rowland's campaign against Sekhukhune. Soon, however, the emphasis shifts to the Cape Colony's troubled eastern frontier, and a full account is given of the historically much neglected Ninth Frontier War, including the first-ever detailed account of the Battle of Centane.".

8vo; original brown boards, lettered in white on spine; pictorial dustwrapper; pp. 148; illustrations. A little foxing. Very good condition. "Under the editorship of Anna H. Smith, a series of articles on a variety of subjects that are of interest to many Africana Collectors has been brought together in this book. Each chapter is the work of an expert in a particular field of Africana and its collecting and the book includes chapters on early printed maps of Africa, commemorative medals, Cape Almanacs, South African paper money, Xhosa beadwork, Johannesburgiana and coins of the South African Republic. Over twenty pages of relevant illustrations have been selected to support the text and an index has been included to facilitate reference. Africana Curiosities shows many of the interesting sides of Africana and will perhaps inspire Collectors to pioneer new fields and to undertake some serious research in their chosen areas and thus add a little more to our small fund of real knowledge of Africana.".

"Children of the Hours is a distillation of her careful botanical observation, her ability to realise texture through line and water colour, to pick an insignificant little flower and transform it into a work of beauty to delight the botanist and art lover alike. These little masterpieces are here combined with a selection of equally finely observed and deeply felt poems, in which gentle wisdom is mixed with refreshing insights and flashes of vivid lyricism. Together these are indeed the 'children of her hours', the offspring of a dedicated artists' lifelong devotion to her art.".

Very good condition. "This is the first major study of the internationally acclaimed playwright Athol Fugard. Through numerous interviews with Fugard and his actors and associates, and drawing upon a wealth of source material, the author introduces Fugard and examines his plays closely and comprehensively. The book explores Fugard's craft as a writer and playwright, and the general shape of his life, primarily as it relates to his work. There is a condensed theatre history of the companies with which he has been associated. Most importantly, his work is placed within its intellectual and historical context, thereby suggesting why the plays have such reverberations and why Fugard is as important a playwright world-wide as any working today. This is an essential study for those who make theatre as well as those who teach it, study it, and attend it.".

"Vivid, vociferous, controversial, Sarah Gertrude Millin made a definite impression, whether favourable or unfavourable, on all who met her. As a novelist of some international standing in the 1920s and 1930s, she resented being compared with Olive Schreiner, corresponded with Katherine Mansfield, was shocked by D. H. Lawrence, admired John Galsworthy, compared insomnias with Arnold Bennett, quarrelled with Theodore Dreiser, and attacked T. S. Eliot on the grounds of anti-Semitism. . It is indeed fitting that a leading South African university should have hailed her as 'par excellence the interpreter of South Africa to the English-speaking world' for, as a symptom and as a victim of her beloved country, Sarah Gertrude Millin is a key to the development of South Africa in this century.".

"This comprehensive anthology of black poetry from southern Africa ranges from the earliest known poems of the Khoisan and the praise poetry of the isimbongi, to the apocalyptic Soweto voices of the 1970s. The emphasis falls on poetry from South Africa, but representative examples of pre- and post-independence poetry from Zimbabwe, Angola and Mozambique reveal the larger coherences underlying the themes of oppression and liberation. The introduction draws fascinating parallels between traditional and oral, and modern and written poetic approaches, between the mission-school idiom of the first black poets writing in English and the harsh, utterly authentic speech rhythms of today, between a pre-Sharpeville voice of protest and a post-Sharpeville, and particularly, a post-Soweto, poetry of resistance.".

"Naboth Mokgatle was born in 1911 in a tribal village called Phokeng near Rustenburg, Transvaal. His youth alternated between schooling by Lutheran missionaries and spells of lonely duty at outlying cattle posts. Naboth left for Pretoria, partly to improve his financial status, but also to escape the weight of conservative tribal tradition. It was not long before he realised that he had only exchanged a mild form of tyranny for an even more severe one crammed with the trappings of petty apartheid. He became involved with trade union organisation and politics during the short-lived heyday of collaboration between the left-wing whites and the African nationalists. Successive acts of defiance of authority led to his being arrested and imprisoned. In 1954 he fled South Africa without a passport, and lived in London as an exile until his death in 1985.".

"This is a broadly based examination and re-assessment of a century of South African fiction in English. The authors seek to re-define the customary critical attitudes which tend to confine South African fiction to the narrow limits of realism, and they distinguish four basic categories - Romance, Pastoral, Realism and Fabulation - in terms of which they trace the development of fiction from the early writers such as Rider Haggard and Olive Schreiner to the surrealistic novels of the seventies, such as Sheila Fugard's The Castaways and John Coetzee's Dusklands. Individual chapters are devoted to representative works by selected authors, and offer careful critical analyses of the works studied, as well as situating them in the broader context of South African fiction as a whole.".

Edges of boards very slightly rubbed; trace of spotting to top edge; gift inscription to front free endpaper; occasional fox spot. Good to very good condition. "As the title indicates, the aim of this book is to give, largely in photographic form, something of the flavour of an epoch that ended - in Cape Town as everywhere else - on 22 January 1901, when Queen Victoria passed away. More than three-quarters of a century have gone by since then and there are few Capetonians still living who can, save as small children, recall her times. The camera, however, still leaves us imperishable records of the city and its environs, and of its inhabitants: their manners, customs, styles of living, modes of transport, entertainments, pastimes and sports. Despite the crude apparatus of those times, the quality was often startlingly good as proved in the hundred and thirty pictures of this book. To supplement what they show, I have described many aspects of old Cape Town about which historians usually remain silent - its sanitation, smells, hotels, places of refreshment and so on. Many South Africans will find personal links in these pages through parents, grandparents and great-grandparents.".
