The Cape Peninsula. Described by Rene Juta. Painted by W. Westhofen (Used)

The narrative takes up with two slightly sentimental travellers , who encounter the immortals (Le Vaillant,Cloete,Van Riebeek and the Dutch Commanders,Lady Anne Barnard & others) with the sometimes discordant chorus (Hottentots, Slaves,Wine-makers,Sailors & the like).  This book is a stunning collection of sketches and watercolor paintings of the Cape Peninsula in South Africa. The images are accompanied by informative descriptions of the locations depicted, providing readers with a unique visual and educational experience. This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Condition: Good, binding coming a bit undone.
