An unusually about fine copy of this attractive 204pp. booklet detailing the sea voyage to the Cape and with much information (statistical and general) about the South Africa of 1899 including the Gold Fields. With several attractive black and white illustrations and a coloured frontispiece of the Norham Castle and a large coloured folding map of South Africa. The second edition ((Twentieth Thousand).
Bound in green limp cloth with wonderful detailed illustrated decoration in gilt including a map of Africa on the rear cover which states "The Shortest Route to the Gold Fields of South Africa". Minimal offsetting the the endpapers, otherwise a just about fine copy of the is book in original state and presumably very scarce thus.
