"In 1986 Gwen Jennings moved, somewhat unexpectedly, from Johannesburg to a farm in Franschhoek, a valley famed for the great beauty of its mountains, vineyards, and roses. Here she discovered once again, in an echo of her country childhood in Rivonia, her love of scenery, space and small towns. In this engaging book she records the stories of the people who have lived and worked in the valley for generations - the unsung, unheralded people of Franschhoek - as well as those of the older farmers. They are stories filled with drama, incident, courage and good humour. We meet a penitent on the road, farm workers devoted to ballroom dancing, dinner parties with cuisine that makes you wish you were there, a hilarious funeral that rivals anything out of Ireland or Provence. At the heart of all these stories is a great love and longing for home and family, for church and land, representing a life and an intimacy that are fast disappearing from the valleys of the Boland.".

Author's presentation inscription to half-title. 244 x 168 mm; laminated pictorial wrappers; pp. 175; lavishly illustrated with full-colour photographs. Fine condition. "Most people think of Antarctica as a white smudge at the bottom of a world map. Yet it's a landmass almost the size of Africa with weather and ocean currents that dominate the planet. In Blue Ice, award-winning travel writer Don Pinnock journeys to the seventh continent - the last to be discovered. He explores what drew Cook, Bellingshausen, Shackleton, Scott and other adventurers and naturalists to this vast terrain. With sensitive descriptions and startling photography, he travels to the heart of Antarctica's wilderness and explores the relationship between Cape Town and the frozen south. This is an extravagant travelogue, which paints a vivid portrait of one of the most remote and unforgiving places on earth. It reveals the extremes of adventure, courage and unspoilt beauty with precision, humour and a sense of wonder.".
