SLIGHT WATER STAINING ON SOME OF THE PAGES HOWEVER THIS DOES NOT IMPACT ON THE TEXT OR COLOUR PLATES. 'Andrew Smith from the moment of his arrival in South Africa in 1821, interested himself in the natural history of the sub-continent. He began immediately to collect and to preserve specimens, and to publish descriptions of them wherever possible, both in South Africa and overseas. He founded the South African Museum in June, 1825, and issued the first part of a descriptive catalogue of some of the contents in 1826. He published in "The South African Commercial Advertiser" a series of articles which were intended to give in outline the zoology of South Africa, and he was the leading spirit in the founding of the first scientific paper to be published in the country, "The South African Quarterly Journal", to which he contributed many valuable ornithological notes.
