8vo; original pictorial boards; laminated pictorial dustwrapper; endpaper map; pp. xiii + (i) + 229, incl. index; plates. Top fore-corners slightly bumped; pages somewhat browned; scattered foxing. Good to very good condition. "Scotty Smith, bandit, highwayman, cattle thief, I.D.B., and certainly one of the most enigmatic charac…ters ever known in Southern Africa. Part rogue, part hero; half a villain, the other half all Good Samaritan; nobody could ever quite make up their minds whether to love or hate him. Innumerable tales have been spun around this curious man. Now F. C. Metrowich has produced the first definitive biography of Scotty Smith, and the details of the bandit's life provide reading at once astonishing and entertaining. Along with Dick Turpin, Robin Hood and Rob Roy of Britain, Ned Kelly of Autralia, Billy the Kid of American and the celebrated Till Eulenspiegel of Germany, Scotty Smith of South Africa joins the select ranks of the world's most picturesque bad men.".
