About This Book
"Lichtenstein arrived in Table Bay on 23 December 1802, employed as tutor to the son of the new Governor of the Cape Colony, General Janssens. The present work includes an account of Janssens' travels to Kaffaria, and of subsequent journeys to the western and northern parts of the colony, with much information on natural history, and a narrative of the capture of the colony by the British. ....Mendelssohn, I, 899 notes this work has much detail on governmental transition, including a severe dispute with Barrow about the Dutch, including a note about corrections to Barrow's map. Travel observations include topography and natural history" --abebooks website.
