Description
First Edition. Second Series volume 28 Van Riebeeck Society . Hardcover. English. 292 pages. References. Index. Translated from the original Swedish. “De Vylder was a Swedish naturalist, who, after a year’s stay in Cape Town, journeyed through present-day Namibia from 1873 to 1875 collecting insects and other natural-history specimens for institutions in his home country. His journal is a record of an adventurous journey, personal encounters and conditions in what was then considered to be a remote region. With this translation the historical travel literature of southern Africa has been enriched.”
