Standard Encyclopedia of Southern Africa SESA - Volume 12 - (Hardcover)

I am selling loose single volumes - This one still in very good condition.  >>>    SESA is a 12-volume encyclopaedia that is principally about the Republic of South Africa and nearby countries. About 1400 people contributed. The first two volumes were published in August 1970; the 12th and final volume was published in September 1976.   - Originally, SESA was to be written in Afrikaans, to focus entirely on South Africa, and to be published in six volumes. However, not only did this significantly limit the target market, many of the encyclopedia's writers submitted their copy in English. The publishers decided to prioritize an English-language edition, and to expand the scope of the encyclopaedia to encompass all of the African countries in the Southern Hemisphere. (Eventually, the Afrikaans edition was abandoned.)      (Wiki)
