Mendelssohn (Sydney) South African Bibliography, volume 1, pages 20-21: 'He proceeded to Namaqualand and Damaraland, which countries were very little known at the time. Leaving Cape Town in 1836, he traversed these regions in an ox wagon, and went through a large part of South West Africa arriving at Walvisch Bay almost exhausted with the difficulties of travel and want of water. He succeeded in obtaining a good collection of zoological and other specimens, many of which were at that time unknown to the scientific world. The volumes contain an account of the social condition of the Namaquas, Bushmen and Damaras.'

Through the hitherto undescribed Countries of the Great Namaquas, Boschmans, and Hill Damaras, performed Under the Auspices of Her Majesty's Government, and the Royal Geographical Society.
