Excerpt from A Historical Geography of the British Colonies, Vol. 4: South Africa, New Edition, Part I; History to 1895 So much history has been made of late years in Africa, and so much has been added to geographical knowledge, that it has been found necessary wholly to recast the African volumes of the series. A new and enlarged edition of West Africa, revised by Mr. A. B. Keith, is now in the press. South Africa is being dealt with in three separate parts. The first part, now in the press, is a reprint, with corrections and new maps, of the history of South Africa down to the year 1895, omitting the last few pages of the old edition. The second part, in course of preparation by the Editor, will carry on the history of South Africa to the present day. The third part will deal with the geography and statistics, etc., of South Africa, including the two Rhodesias, the reviser being Mr. A. B. Keith. A wholly new volume (volume VII) will in due course be devoted to Central and East Africa. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Geography of British South Africa In this book I have tried to describe in a simple way the main geographical features of British South Africa. In doing so it is impossible to avoid altogether the history of past quarrels, but in mentioning them I have endeavoured to be fair, and to keep clear of political controversies which are still hot. I have not thought it wise to go into any statistics. These pass out of date almost as speedily as they slip from the memory. But the physical features of the land, its climate and resources, the character of its inhabitants, its flora and fauna, its industries and occupations are more or less abiding. To these I have given most space. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A First Geography of South Africa This book of South African Geography has been written for children of Standards III or IV. It meets the requirements for Standard III laid down in the new Geography Syllabus of the Transvaal Education De partment; and it will also be found suitable for the work of Standard IV in the Cape Province and Natal. Naturally, there has been no attempt to make the book a complete treatise on the geography of the Union of South Africa, its neighbours and dependencies; but it is hoped that it will be found to cover the ground with sufficient fullness for beginners. I must acknowledge my indebtedness to the Publicity Department of the South African Railways for permission to reproduce some of their beautiful photographs, and especially to Mr. J. Smith, the photographer of that department, for kind advice in making a selection. To friends, 'who have generously supplied me with views for reproduction, I have to express also my warmest thanks; their names are duly mentioned with the illustrations. My thanks, too, are due to the newspapers of this country for much valuable information. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
