The Rhodesiana Reprint Library editions are all a uniform size. A worthwhile alternative to other editions because of the new information and illustrations included with each volume. Original volumes are scarce, especially in original condition, and often unaffordable. The books are set in context with biographical information on the author supplied and in many instances additional appendices provided. In one set you have many of the major stories covering the history of Rhodesia as told by those who were there.
