"These are very human stories for it is the characters rather than the events that hold our interest. There are plain tales of heroism - Wolraad Woltemade (whom everyone knows) and Jochem Willemsz (whom virt…ually nobody knows); there is horror in the dreadful privations of the survivors of the Cospatrick, which caught fire at sea; and there is fufilment in the inspired leadership of such men as Nuno Volho Pereira and Sir Ernest Shackleton. A truly gripping collection of disasters at sea, masterfully recounted.".

4to; original blue boards; pictorial dustwrapper; pp. 234 + (ii), incl. index; cartoon illustrations. Dustwrapper very slightly rubbed to lower panel, with trace of wear to head of spine panel; edges, endpapers and outermost leaves a little foxed. Very good condition. 'Readers who have come to expect of Jose Burman entertainingl…y told home truths about history will not be disappointed with this volume. In this book the author has gathered humorous incidents of South African history, from Jan van Riebeeck to the Boer War. Wittily illustrated by Jackson, these little-known facets of history not only throw light on the past, but make amusing and interesting reading. Here you will meet Noah's Wildebeest, the baboon that sounded the Castle alarm, the Battalion of Illegitimates, and the horse "Cracker" that broke in recruits for the Natal Mounted Police; you will learn how Anders Sparrman made "snake-juice", of the night Sir John Barrow was saved by a Hottentot girl's steatopygia, how the Royal Navy drank tea instead of rum, Prince Alfred's adventures at Howick, and much besides. So, in the author's word, "join in enjoying a laugh at History".'.

Squarish 8vo; original blue-green boards, lettered in white on spine; pictorial dustwrapper; endpaper map; pp. 155, incl. index; colour plates; some illustrations in text. Dustwrapper a little rubbed and edgeworn; gift inscription to half-title; occasional fox spot. Very good condition. 'Jose Burman has given us a book with a di…fference: it is not a guide but it takes you round the valley; it is not a history but it tells the story of the Little Karoo, and the passes that cross its mountains. It also tells the story of ostriches, the saga that brought immense wealth to the Little Karoo, and great tragedy. For the Little Karoo is the real home of these long-legged birds - 95 per cent of the world's ostriches now live there. There are fascinating chapters on the rise (and fall) of the ostrich-towns, the Cango Caves and extensions (by one who has been intimately connected with the Caves for over 25 years), and the mysterious valley of "Die Hel". This is a book that brings a little-known part of the country to life - a book you will enjoy reading, and a valley you will want to visit.'.
