" From the thousands of photographs of Bloemfontein which he discovered in the course of his researches or found in existing collections, Karel Schoeman has compiled an album which represents a surprisingly comprehensive account of the development of the town during the half century between 1860 and 1910. 

The 492 mostly unknown photographs of people, places and events which have been brought together here not only form a striking visual record of a single community but are a unique collection of Africana in which much information on the historical and socio-cultural development of South Africa has been preserved for later generations."
