Book is in excellent condition with clean pages, solid binding and the original 100+ year old dust cover which has survived in almost perfect condition for over a century, with only the spine being faded. The front and back panels of the jacket are vibrant in colour.

"A brief but comprehensive account of the country of South-West Africa, its history, its people, its resources, and its great possibilities."

Dedicated to General Louis Botha.
