Very good to near-fine condition."Early explorers and settlers, courageous and eccentric personalities, trade, farming and enterprise, shipwrecks and frontier wars - this is the subject matter of the panorama of Port Elizabeth. The enthusiasm and conscientious scholarship of Eleanor Lorimer, regional historian of the social and cultural life of P.E., is manifest thorughout this absorbing book. Colonel Robert Gordon, Sir Rufane Donkin, Frederick Korsten, Captain Francis Evatt, Sophia Pigot, the Lovemore family - these are some of the names that feature in the early history of the region.. This rich and varied story is enlivened by a unique collection of illustrations: an extensive search was made for old photographs, with exciting results; there are reproductions of pictures by Daniell, Bowler, Baines, Huggins, and of engravings from contemporary issues of'Illustrated London News'and'Graphic'. The author herself has made wash drawings based on old photographs and Tony Grogan has contributed line illustrations of houses and monuments made especially for this edition."

This'new Canaan', as Lady Anne Barnard called it, is described by Dr Burrows as'one of the richest repositories of our national heritage'. The success of the first printing of this book many years ago proves his claim. The history of the Swellendam Drostdy, the short-lived Swellendam republic, the birth and development of sheep farming, glimpses of the lovely old homesteads, and the families who owned them, Van Bredas, Van Reenens, Reitzes, Moodies; the story of the fabulous Barry empire, the lost seaports; all these are revealed in a book that is not only for the collector and historian but for all who enjoy a good story and glimpses of an intriguing, romantic past." Books: Overberg Outspan. A Chronicle of People and Places in the South Western Districts of the Cape
