Lady Anne Barnard's Watercolours and Sketches - Glimpses of the Cape of Good Hope - Nicolas Barker,

1. For two hundred years few people outside Lady Anne Barnard's family (of whom the author of the foreword is one) realised that she was a fine artist as well as the famous writer of letters from the Cape, to Lord Macartney and others.

Nicolas Barker's illustrated and produced recent book, prepared with the cooperation of Lady Anne's family, sets the record straight.
