NOTES | From Guy Butler's Introduction: 'The purpose of this collection is to take a fresh look at some aspects of the British tradition in our country; for a change, to pass over the comentraries of men and woman who arrived here as mature and formed characters; whose emporary ambit was for the most part Cape officialdom; to look, instead, at Africa as it appeared through the eyes of the impressionable under twenties: those whom Africa was to shape, and who were to shape Africa, the majority of whom are buried in her soil.' A very interesting read on the adventures of young settlers and all historically factual. |
