A fascinating and beautifully-presented social history. "Wealth and poverty, the decrepit and the very new, peril and charm . vibrant contrasts thronged the streets of late Victorian Cape Town, that bustling meeting-place of nations. Progress brought steamships, a modern harbour, a railway station, telegrams, weekly mail, telephones, horseless carriages. The mineral revolution spelt Eldorado for some while others could only eke out an existence on the beach or the mountain. History, with its exciting and sometimes cruel extremes, was in the making .
