About the product South African Library General Series, Number 18. 210 x 145 mm; pictorial wrappers; pp. 78, incl. index; monochrome illustrations. Wrappers very slightly rubbed. Very good condition."Porter's Touwfontein letters are published firstly as an insider's account of an important development in the history of South Africa, for the meeting convened by the Governor in 1845 was the beginning of a chain of events which led to the appointment of a British Resident in the Transorange in the same year, the proclamation of British sovereignty over the area in 1848 and the establishment of the Orange Free State in 1854. In addition, however, the letters also provide an entertaining and informative description of conditions in the interior of South Africa in the 1840s."
