About the product 8vo; original blue cloth, lettered in gilt on spine, with gilt publisher's monogram to upper cover; no dustwrapper; pp. xiii + (i) + 248, incl. index; plates; some illustrations in text. Very good condition."The arrival at the Cape of Good Hope, early in 1834, of Sir John Herschel and Thomas Maclear initiated for them a period of intense scientific endeavour. Herschel was graced by a name which, from the astronomical discoveries of his father, Sir William Herschel, was already a household word. The younger Herschel was arguably the most famous scientist ever to spend a significant portion of his life in the beneficial clime of the Cape. Much has been written about Herschel's scientific work at the Cape. The picture is far from complete, however.. This gives some justification for the publication of what is in fact the majority of the letters written by Herschel during his residence at the Cape. For Maclear the situation is quite the reverse. Completely unknown on his arrival at the Cape, he had steadily to build up fame on the foundations of industry and public service. By the time of his death in 1879 his repute was such that his passing moved even the Cape Parliament to a salutation.. Yet the nature of the man is hardly known in the country of his adoption, and his contributions are largely forgotten in his chosen profession. Although a full-scale biography is required to do justice to Maclear, the diaries and letters reproduced here will go some way towards establishing his character." Maclear&Herschel.

About the product Being letters and diaries preserved by Mrs J. F. Slater (Sarah Ann Bland) at Carnarvon Dale on the Bushman's River and edited by her granddaughter Rosalind Slater. 220 x 150 mm; pictorial wraps; pp. (ii) + 109; photographs. Vertical crease to upper wrap; some moderate foxing; pencilled genealogical tables inside wraps; a little underlining. Very good overall."Sarah Ann Slater kept letters, and several hundred from relations and friends fill the old campaign chest at Carnarvon Dale. We are printing in several booklets some of these letters, which include those written to each other by Sarah and her husband John Slater, and those of the Bonnin sisters and the Blands. The children of John and Sarah wrote home from schools, the Diamond Fields in the 1870's, Johannesburg in the 1880's and 1890's, from Rhodesia 1890, on service during the Boer War and from England. There are also numbers of letters from their grandchildren and from their relatives, the Parkers, Blands, Wilmots, Hobsons, Berringtons and Slaters."- editor's introduction. The letters provide a clear window in the life of an extended 1820 Settler family.
