'n Mens lees van mense wat die Trek meegemaak het; van die voorbereidings vir die lang tog die onbekende in; van gevaarlike reis met die ossewa oor berge en vlaktes en deur vol riviere; van kosmaak op die trekpad; van die klere wat die Trekkers gedra het; van die maak van kerse, seep, kruithorings, swepe en pype; van onverskrokke jagters en noue ontkomings op die jagveld; hoe daar laer getrek is in tye van gevaar; van siektes, rate en medisyne; van die begrafnis van gestorwenes; van kerkdienste, die doop van kinders en die aanneming van jongmense as lidmate van die kerk; van geliefkoosde liedere wat gesing is; hoe die kinders skoolgegaan en leer lees en skryf het; van pret en plesier op bruilofsfeeste en op Nuwejaar en die vreugde wanneer die smous opgedaag het; van die lewe in waens, tente en hartbeeshuisies en hoe die eerste huise na die Trek gelyk het. Die daaglikse lewe op trek word uitgebeeld soos Trekkers dit in dagboeke en herinneringskrifte opgeteken of vertel het, soos kunstenaars uit hulle tyd dit geteken of gekilder het en soos dit blyk uit die versameling voorwerpe in die Nasionale Kultuurhistoriese en Opelugmuseum wat aan Trekkers behoort het en in die Voortrekkermonumentmuseum besigtig kan word. Dit sluit in boeke, wapens, kledingstukke, gebruiksartikels, foto's end persoonlike besittings. OP TREK is geskryf deur navorsers van die Nasionale Kultuurhistoriese en Opelugmuseum wat 'n studie van hierdie versameling gemaak het.".

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. 154 pages in Afrikaans : illustrations (some colour) ; 29 cm. Summary:"Die geskiedenis van volkskuns in Suid-Afrika is 'n huldeblyk aan geslagte uit verlore dae, wat ten spyte van moeilike omstandighede, probeer het om die skone en modieuse waarna hulle gehunker het, in alledaagse voorwerpe te vergestalt. Talle booke oor die volkskuns van die verskillende Europese volke het n die meeste lande verskyn en dit is opvallend dat die unieke kultuurerfenis nog nooit in Suid-Afrika te boek gestel is nie. Die geskiedenis van volkskuns in Suid-Afrika is nie 'n katalogus van voorwerpe van volkskuns wat in Suid-Afrika voorkom nie. Dit verklaar in die eerste plek die ontstaan en die kenmerke van Westerse volkskuns in ons land teen die kultturhistoriese agtergrond. 'n Wye verskeidenheid van voorbeelde word bespreek: merklappe en wakiste, papierknipsels en geslagsregisters, houtvoorwerpe en grafstene, en nog baie meer."--Front flap of dust cover.
