Condition: Very Good. [iv], 106, 2 b/w plates, endpaper maps. . HB. 8vo, orig. cloth. Vg in d/w. From the Library of David J. Greathead, with his pencil initials to endpaper. Edited by Rev. Dr. L. A. Hewson and Dr. F. G. Ven Der Riet. The Rev. John Ayliff, 1820 settler and one of the pioneer missionaries of the Eastern Cape, left among his papers an unfinished manuscript, here published in full for the first time under the current title. It consists of a narrative mostly in diary form of the experiences of a young British settler of 1820 whom the writer calls 'Harry Hastings': the four-month voyage from London to Algoa Bay, the trek to the settlement near Bathurst and the difficult months that followed. Harry Hastings is to be regarded not only as an alter ego of John Ayliff, but also as a typical British settler. A lively and entertaining account of settler life, and a unique fund of information about the first years of the Albany Settlement.
