Vrystaatse Erfenis . . . [Free State Heritage] (1982)

". . . Bouwerk en geboue in the 19e eeu [Building types and buildings of the 19th century]"

Because of its 24 pages of colour plates and its 70 pages of monochrome illustrations in the text, this book is fairly accessible to those with even a small knowledge of Afrikaans and no equivalent book is available in English. The book begins with the grass, reed, timber and stone structures of the early inhabitants of the part of South Africa that became the Free State and ends with the end of the Free State Republic in 1900. For those with Afrikaans, the commentary in the accompanying text is of considerable historical value -- Schoeman having dominated this field in this part of South Africa for so long.
