Item description from seller

8vo; original blue cloth, lettered in gilt on spine; no dustwrapper; pp. 288, incl. index; plates; two folding maps. A little rubbed; ownership inscriptions to front pastedown and title page; hinges just starting, with tape reinforcing to head of lower hinge; a little foxing. Good condition. "In his new book Deneys Reitz, author of Commando and Trekking On, now High Commissioner for South Africa and South African Minister to the Belgian, Dutch and Greek Governments, continues the story of his life. Deneys Reitz has divided his time between politics, the law, and exploration; and on special missions has visited London, the Maginot Line, Portugal, Franco Spain, and Ireland, where he attempted to persuade Mr. de Valera to co-operate in the prosecution of the war. . We do not think any book has been so successful in giving us the feel of the country, both physical and spiritual; or, most important, in foreshadowing South Africa's course in future years. Although a book of active adventure, No Outspan is at heart the story of a man's love for his country . ".
