"This, the ninth offering from adventurer, historian and raconteur Bartle Logie, departs somewhat from the pattern established in his previous books. Here Bart offers a very entertaining mixed bag of short, sharp stories - 72 of them! We get a glimpse of his life and adventures as a young man in England and the Cape, as well as anecdotes from his childhood visits to the Lower Albany area in the Eastern Cape, where his father was born and spent his early years. Interspersed are acute, insightful and entertaining observations of the people, the rich history and the diverse flora and fauna of this fascinating region of the Eastern Cape.".

'Adventurer, historian and raconteur Bartle Logie's normal research pattern involves intensive deskbound research, accompanied by meticulously following the route of the planned narrative in the trusty Isuzu. However, this was not to be for this his 10th book - those plans hit a major snag in 2020: the Coronavirus Pandemic. As he puts it: "Making plans is all very well, but we were no sooner on our way than we were faced with the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic and associated lockdown. This resulted in enforced 'virtual' travel while seated at home in a comfortable chair. Ultimately, in dribs and drabs, the journey was completed in reality, but unlike any other that we have undertaken." However, this has not in any way detracted from this eminently readable story of the history, people, flora and fauna of the Garden Route and Langkloof - among South Africa's most beautiful and fascinating regions - told in Bartle Logie's easy, highly personal fireside style.'.

"Bartle Logie together with his wife Caryl, in this the sixth book in his series of historical travelogues through the Eastern Cape region of South Africa, undertakes a fascinating and informative journey along the course of the Sundays River, from its sources in the mountains north of Graaff-Reinet to the sea. Their journey takes them from the top of the Lootsberg to the town of Graaff-Reinet, across the vast and arid plains to Jansenville, over the Zuurberg mountains into Kirkwood and The Valley, famous for its citrus orchards and mighty elephants, to the sand dunes of Algoa Bay. In his inimitable story-telling style, Bartle recounts many a fascinating tale of people and places associated with the river, the waters of which form a common thread as it winds its way through their lives and events. And it is the water, too, that has been the focus of so many man-made changes in the environment of the river. The book is well illustrated with historical photographs.".

Ann Snaddon (illustrator). 206 x 147 mm; pictorial wrappers; maps inside wrappers; pp. 180; monochrome illustrations in text; plates. Fine condition. The author "follows the course of one of the Eastern Cape's most historic rivers - the Great Fish - from its source in the Nardouberg northwest of Cradock, as it winds its way through the arid Karoo into Frontier country and completes its 500 km journey to the Indian Ocean." In so doing, he "brings to life stories of those who have stood on its banks (once the official boundary of the old Cape Colony) and have drunk its life-giving water . Soldiers and farmers, hunters and warriors, writers and naturalists - all these and many others have tales to tell, and Logie uncovers a wealth of local history as he follows the river, at times through some of the remotest parts of the Eastern Cape.".
