Facsimile reprint: 10 pages prelims, including an Introduction by Frank Bradlow, and 133 pages of actual facsimile of the original 1849 edition of 44 hand-coloured lithographs and 11 wood engravings. Large folio (555 x 380mm).
Angas's masterpiece is enhanced by his texts, not only for his "Introduction", "General Remarks", and "On the Malays of Cape Town", but also by his extensive and penetrating remarks on each individual lithograph.
This celebrated facsimile is surely the crowning glory of all the fine productions by AA Balkema.
This deluxe limited edition of 100 copies, numbered from 1 - 100, of which this is number 8, is bound in brown half-leather with decorated boards.
This edition should not be confused with the standard edition and is far superior.
