- Although this is was already a thick and heavy book, it was intended to be followed by a second volume to complete the cataloguing all the important buildings of Pietermaritzburg; no second volume, however, seems to have been published
A feature of the published volume was Desiree Picton-Seymour's distinctive scraperboard-illustrated dustjacket
Mauve dustjacket, black cloth-boards with gilt lettering to the spine, map on front free endpaper, second (folding) map in pocket at the back, xxii/1190 pp of b/w-illustrated text and 6 appendixes, all profusely illustrated by b/w photographs
- This is an excellent complete copy - unmarked and undiscoloured
Pietermaritzburg - described as having progessed from a small Voortrekker town to the capital of one of the Union of South Africa's four provinces - was the first South African city to attempt a publication of such a catalogue on this scale
