Notes of Travel in South-Western Africa (FIRST EDITION)

First edition, first printing, of the scarce American publication, 1875, by G.P. Putnam's Sons. 

 

"This is the last record of the adventures of the author, in what is now known as German South-West Africa, the narrative being continued up to the time of his death on the banks of the Cunene River. The volume contains a description of a battle between the Namaquas and Damaras, the latter having been lead by the author, who was severely wounded in the contest. Other chapters contain information respecting the Ovambo, a warlike race in the north, and there are interesting notes about the game birds of the country and the river Cunene" - Mendelssohn's South African Bibliography, Vol.1, pg 43
