Although the spine is sunned and the boards are lightly rubbed and bumped, this copy is in very good overall condition: tight binding; endpapers sunned but no text, plate or tissue-guard foxing. A few unobtrusive pencil markings are in the text.

There is an unrecognised owner signature and the words "Victoria West 15/12/04" in ink on the front free endpaper.

vii + 178 pp of text + frontispiece and seven plates: two of the authors; "an interesting group" [of 10] including Commandant Wessels and Lieutenant Troskie; General de Wet; ex-President Steyn; and two of Commandants Theron and Fouche.
