([Pietermaritzburg/Durban]: University of Natal, no date). Facsimile reproduction of the 1858 edition sold by Trübner and Co. and Brockhaus. 8vo; light brown cloth, with gilt-on-red and gilt-on-black lettering pieces to spine; pp. (ii) + 261; charts, incl. folding. Some spotting to top edge and endpapers. Very good condition. The volume includes two parts: Part 1 has to do with "South Africa", within the limits of British influence, and Part 2 deals with Africa north of the Tropic of Capricorn. Superb annotated bibliography bringing together the work of two pioneers in the field, the champion of indigenous peoples George Grey and the famous philologist Wilhelm Bleek. .
