'A short sketch of the missionary's life from his birth to the year 1871. Much of the information has been gleaned from "Missionary Labours and Scenes in South Africa," but some particulars have been taken from Mr. Moffat's correspondence , and a narrative of his career which appeared in the Cape Monthly Magazine, July and August 1870. Some details are given respecting the death and funeral of Mrs. Moffat.' - Mendelssohn Vol.II, page 30

A neat and solid copy with only some mild foxing to the prelims.
