Forbes was appointed Professor Emeritus at the University of Cape Town in the 1970s. A careful researcher, he covers the golden age of travel at the Cape as travellers reported back on their findings in the interior: physical, botanical, geological and anthropological. Amongst the travellers dealt with are Beutler, Thunberg, Sparrman and Barrow.
