A fine copy. Freeman provides an account of his third visit to Africa in 1848. As well as providing valuable information on the geography and mission stations of South Africa, the work is significant for its material on the native tribes. Included are brief histories of the Hottentots and Kaffirs, and notes on the Griqua, Bwechuana and Basuto tribes. Mendelssohn I, p565.
