Mendelssohn (Sidney) South African Bibliography, volume 2, page 234, ‘A curious little collection of essays, written in Cape Town about the middle of the nineteenth century and mainly illustrative of that town and its suburbs at that period. One of the chapters deals with the state of the Cape Town Library, drawing attention to the lack of a proper catalogue, and criticising the selection of new books acquired from time to time.’
