First edition. Unpaginated [15 pages of text + 56 full-page black and white plates with captions opposite], grey cloth with a mark on the upper cover, a very good copy in the dust dust jacket which is slightly worn along the top and bottom edges.

Editor's note. Nadine Gordimer has contributed an introductory essay, 'She describes an extraordinary scene now fast disappearing. She writes at first hand of the mining community, where black men put gold and power into the hands of white men.' 'This book is an essay in the understanding of men and the style, grace and significance which inhabits their most mundane activities.'
