Cape Town is a place of haunting natural beauty and captivating urban charm on Africa s southernmost peninsula. Here, under the spellbinding influence of Table Mountain, jagged cliffs tumble steeply into the sea; mountain faces tower above unspoilt beaches; an indigenous floral kingdom garlands the mountains and valleys; and vineyards embrace the city in a patchwork of vivid colours. Gerald Hoberman presents an insightful portrait of the city s history, its architectural heritage and its vibrant, creative people. Informative text accompanying the photographs blends historical detail with current knowledge. Cape Town is an inspiring book, a celebration of diversity. But above all else, it is a rich offering to all who share a profound love for South Africa s Mother City.
