"For sheer diversity the genus Erica is the most outstanding of all the many genera that make up the fynbos biome in the south-western and southern corner of South Africa. It numbers some 650 species, many of which are quite exquisite in the shape, colouring and delicacy of their flowers. Some are very rare, and others are on the point of extinction. Authors Dolf Schumann and Gerhard Kirsten have undertaken the major task of writing about and illustrating this vast array of plants with unstinting enthusiasm. With the help of professional botanist and a recognised expert on the erica family. E.G.H. Oliver, they have compiled some 450 species descriptions and illustrated each one with one or more superb colour photographs.".

" "Childhood Songs" has been prepared to meet a demand for a first-class book for the primary department in Sunday-schools and for home use among the little folks. It is the outgrowth, in great part, of an experience of several years in primary work. Most of its melodies have been subjected to practical tests which have demonstrated their adaptedness to the powers and tastes of little children. As will be seen, these melodies align themselves with the newer music of the day. They will be found on trial to be as simple as they are sweet and harmonious. Great attention has been given to the words as well as to the music. The hymns are within the comprehension of the youngest child, but the truths and sentiments they express are of the highest order and in the best form. The editors have done their utmost to combine variety with excellence. It is believed that there is not a single page which will not be found available and helpful." - excerpt from the Publisher's Note.
