THIS book originated as a series of letters written by a young bride in Rhodesia to her mother in Britain, between 1901 and 1912. It tells, in charming conversational style, of the rigours of domestic life in early Salisbury (now Harare), the raising of a young family, the social life of the day and the activities of her husband 'Toby'. Sheila Macdonald's delightful humour ripples through the book and is at its best, perhaps, when she recounts how she copes with the culinary exploits of inexperienced domestic servants. Sally in Rhodesia ran to many editions in the United Kingdom and Australia, and became something of an institution in Rhodesia, a classic on the family life of 'the settler.

Hardcover. English. Books of Rhodesia, Bulawayo. 1970. 208 pp with black & white photographs and illustrations. In slightly marked orange cloth with gilt title on spine and upper cover, no dw. One ink smudge on edge of middle of paper going over a few pages. Book No: 2505708
