Large 4to; burgundy boards, lettered on spine and upper cover; laminated pictorial dustwrapper; endpaper map; pp. 684, incl. index; ribbon marker; lavishly illustrated with several colour maps, contemporary illustrations in monochrome and colour, and modern photographs from the trekkers' route; appendices providing lists of members of trekker parties and of Boers in Angola.

From 1874 to 1881 a number of organized treks left the Transvaal in search of political independence and better living conditions. These so-called Thirstland treks were complex phenomena as a result of economic, religious and political factors.

A very good copy.
