Famous South African Trials - Napier Devitt

First edition published by Van Schaik in 1930. Ex-library in good condition.

Accounts of twenty famous South African trials, originally published in the "Outspan" magazine, here collected for the first time.

"I make no apology for presenting the accounts of the crimes and trails which here follow. Of late years the English-speaking world has been flooded with stories of crimes committed in the British Isles, and while the same motives are the springs which move all such events, regardless of colour or of creed, the narration of similar South African occurrences will, I trust, not come amiss..." - The Author.
