This book tells the fascinating story of a most remarkable man of Scottish ancestry, scion of a noble family and descended from King Donald Bane of Scotland; of how, as a Byrne settler, a young lad of eight, he came out to this country in 1850; of how he founded and built up a magnificent estate of close on 10 000 hectares, which on his death he left as a gift to the people of South Africa; of his long fight to convince the authorities that dipping was the answer to East Coast Fever, thereby saving South Africa from disaster; of his sensational Dairy enterprise, spanning the length and breadth of the country; and of his work as Member of Parliament, Cabinet Minister, and originator of the Congella harbour. But the book is more than this. It gives at the same time a brilliant picture of Victorian social and political life in Natal in the latter half of the 19th century, a period about which little has so far been written.".…

hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
