A rich and fascinating history of the Eastern Cape.
An absorbing collection of stories, rich in the pathos, humour, fortitude and courage of a frontier people. Read the thrilling accounts of border warfare, of the cruel fate which befell the lovely Tyumic villages, of the disastrous affair at the Boomah Pass, of how a band of indomitable Scottish pioneers tames the desolate Valley of Baboons, and of the savage duel, fought with horsewhip and cane, between two prominent Grahamstown citizens. With historical black and white photographs.
