How it works

Register

205pp. Original blind embossed cloth hardcover with gilt title to front cover-board.

Light wear to extremities. Heavily toned end-papers. Rubber stamp to front EPs. Internally clean and tight.

An account of the labours and travels of the author, a Roman Catholic missionary in South Africa. The volume contains a description of many of the towns and villages in the Western Province of the Cape Colony at this period.

Revised from the 1877 edition to exclude the parts about the work of associated clergymen, making this edition, in its new form, more a personal account of the author's travels.
