Dustwrapper partially sunned; occasional fox spot. Very good condition. "The Rev John Ayliff, 1820 Settler and a well-known pioneer missionary in the Eastern Cape, left amongst other writings a personal diary covering the period 4 April 1821 to 8 December 1831. It is a strangely moving document dealing largely with his tasks as a preacher and assistant missionary and serves to illuminate the kind of difficulties and hardships the British settlers often had to face. Ayliff's journal, now published for the first time, is one of the very few contemporary documents to have survived, dealing with the first decade of Albany Settlement.".

Library ink stamps to front free endpaper and prelims.; penned code to front free endpaper; archival tape reinforcing between half-title and title pages. Good condition. This book considers the development of an indigenous South African English verse literature, from the time of Thomas Pringle, through to the twentieth century and the landmark represented by "the Voorslag revolt", and on until the time of the book's publication. "As has previously been remarked . the growth of a nation's culture . is normally a slow process taking place throughout centuries. If an indigenous culture was to emerge in South Africa, it had to grow out of the ordinary lives of the people, the European element of which was a heterogeneous and widely scattered body of men and women who had left their homelands for a variety of reasons.".
